After School Policies

Class Pick-Up

Parents must pick up children immediately following the end of each class or program in the Beginner's Playground on Craigie Street. Children will be released only to authorized guardians. Written notification must be provided if alternate arrangements are made, including if a child is permitted to walk home. Please respect the commitments of our instructors and arrive promptly for pick-up. Email us with any schedule changes at: AfterSchool@bbns.org.

Late Fees

Ten minutes after the end of each class or program is considered late. Children waiting for late parents will be supervised in the After School Care Program regardless of the class or program they attend. As a result, families will be charged the daily rate for this service regardless of the amount of time the child spends in After School Care. Late pick up from After School Care may result in a late fee.

Withdrawals

ASAP classes: A full refund will be granted for withdrawal requests submitted in writing prior to the second meeting.

After Care: A full refund, minus the Daily Rate ($55) will be granted for withdrawal requests submitted in writing prior to the second week/meeting.

All Programs: No refunds will be granted for requests made after the start of the second meeting. In addition, no transfer of fees will be allowed to any other program after the second class meeting.

Make-Up Classes

After school classes will run the full length of each session. Any private lesson cancelled due to the instructor being out, will be made up. ASAP classes will be made up if the instructor misses more than one class. Any class may be canceled due to weather or other school closings. These classes will not have a make up. Cancellations will be brought to the attention of all participants as soon as possible.

Emergencies

Financial Aid

Aid will be granted at the same percentage rate as received for tuition with a minimum payment of $50 per class or program for all ASAP classes and all After Care Programs with the exception of After Care Daily Purchases.

All aid applicants should register for all desired programs online. On the final registration page (payment page), those families interested in aid should check "applying for aid" AND pay the registration fee of $50.00 per class/program for each child.

Families will be notified of any aid awards within a reasonable time after the family completes their registration. Families will be required to make the final payment for all programs needed within 30 days of notification of award status. All applicants will be required to pay a minimum of $50 toward any class/program regardless of the amount of aid the family is entitled to.

Employee Discount and Rates

All children of BB&N employees are eligible to receive After School Care at no additional cost. Employees are required to pre-register their children for After School Care prior to dropping off at after school. No child will be admitted in the program without pre-registration. After School Care can be ordered via the online registration page at any time. There is no employee discount for ASAP classes at this time.

Non-Discrimination Policy

Community Standards

All BB&N students are required to conform to all school policies and community standards currently in effect. Disregard for these policies and/or standards may result in a child’s removal from the program either on a temporary basis or a permanent basis as determined by the After School Program director. Students in the Morse Building are escorted to their after school programs. Students in the New Wing and Brick Building are required to be capable of walking themselves to their after school program without incident.
