CENTER STREET CAMPUS K4-8TH BEFORE & AFTERCARE - FOR THE 24-25 SCHOOL YEAR

This page covers the Before & Aftercare options for the Center Street Campus.  If you are looking for options for the North Avenue or Karl J. Schlueter campuses, please go to those pages.

Account Balances

Parents must have a zero balance at the start of the school year to be approved for Before and After Care services.  If a student is registered and the account is not at $0, the student will be placed on the waiting list until the account reaches $0.  At which time the students may be placed on the accepted list if there is room available.

After the start of the school year, account balances must remain at or below $100 to continue use of Before & Aftercare services on an ongoing basis.  All rules regarding balances apply to the current and past school years.

Before Care

On site Before Care services are from 7:00 - 7:30am, Monday - Friday at all three campuses.  Seats are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.  

  • Cost: $2 daily charge per student, maximum $4/day per family.  Wisconsin Shares may NOT be used for this expense.
  • Before Care operates from 7:00am to 7:30am with students being dropped off between 7:00 - 7:20am.  After 7:20am students must wait in their vehicles and enter the building at 7:30am with all other students.
  • Students must be registered & accepted into the Before Care program in order to be dropped off.

After Care

After Care services are specific to each campus.  Before registering, please carefully review the details and requirements for participation and registration. Please note that students who are registered for off-site aftercare MAY NOT attend on-site aftercare unless COA or BGC are closed for the day.  On-site aftercare has limited capacity and is only for students who have been enrolled in the program.

NOTE: If a student is removed from any one of the programs listed below for behavioral reasons, they will not be allowed to join one of the remaining programs.
