Westchester Lutheran School has created a new before and after school program called Extended Care.  Our program is available year round and includes a special emphasis on holiday, spring, and summer camps.   This service is geared exclusively for Westchester Lutheran School families.  Our goal is to provide a safe and fun environment for our students.  During the school year students enjoy a wide range of school activities.

Morning Extended Care provides the students with an opportunity to enjoy quiet time by playing board games, watching educational TV and videos, and getting  exercise before school starts. 

Afternoon Extended Care program  is designed to give students a break from their academically demanding school day.  The entire lower campus playground is available for students to get some fresh air and exercise.   Light snacks are given to satisfy their hunger without spoiling their dinner-time appetites.  Parents are welcome to send snacks in addition to the ones provided by our staff.

Specific time is set aside for the students to complete homework. Our Staff is available to assist the children with their assignments.   Supervised classrooms are used to encourage students to complete their homework in a quiet and comfortable environment.

Daycare starts right after school ends.   Daycare is provided as a service to the families of our students only.  Payment is due on the 1st of each month.
