Before & After School Care

These are critical times to engage children in play as a way to foster a sense of well-being and belonging, enabling young people to develop essential life skills, build positive relationships, and reach their full potential in a safe and inclusive environment.

At BGC, we have before and after school program options that may meet your child’s needs.

Before & After School Programs

Before and After School Programs provide play experiences that enhance the development of the whole child. These programs offer a snack, often children choices of what they want to play, and encourage children to explore and discover their world in a safe, nurturing environment.

These programs are for children from JK to age 12. Full-time care is available on P.A. days and school breaks. Children must be enrolled at the school to receive a spot in before and after school programs. More information, including cost, can be found in the parent handbook.
