SAINT JUDE CARES PROGRAM -Children Are Receiving Extended Services 

POLICY: WHAT IS A CARES PROGRAM?
The St. Jude School CARES PROGRAM is before and after school care for children, Pre Kindergarten through sixth grade.  It is staffed by school personnel, serves only the children enrolled at St. Jude School, and operates only on days when school is in session.    

The CARES PROGRAM is open from 7:15 am until 8:15 am each school day and 3:15 pm until 6:00 pm each FULL school day.  CARES provides professional supervision and recreation. A snack is provided at 3:30. Following the snack the children interact with one another, playing with games, art and crafts, and various toys.  Time is also set aside for homework to be completed by the children attending 1^st through 6th grade.
 
The CARES PROGRAM is staffed by a director and a number of devoted teachers/teacher-aides. These people, employed on a full-time or part-time basis, work together to help each child grow in maturity and to maintain an atmosphere where respect and understanding for others is encouraged and expected.  
 
EMERGENCY CLOSINGS  
The CARES PROGRAM will follow the emergency closing procedures of Saint Jude School.  If school opens late, there will be NO morning CARES.  If school closes early, the afternoon CARES PROGRAM will be canceled.  There will be NO after-school CARES on scheduled half days of school.
