AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM

Stiles Point, James Island & Harbor View Elementary Schools

2020-2021

James Island Presbyterian Foundation

The James Island Presbyterian Foundation (JIPF) provides an after-school program for children in K-5 to 5th grades attending Stiles Point (SPE), James Island (JIE) or Harbor View (HVE) elementary schools.

Children are transported to our campus from SPE and HVE by either fifteen (15) or thirty (30) passenger buses operated by the JIPF. Students from JIE are transported to our campus by Durham Bus Services.

The typical after school program schedule for students from these elementary schools is as follows:

2:20 – 2:30 PM     Bus Pick-Up at School

2:40 – 2:45 PM     Bus Arrival at the ASP

2:45 – 3:15 PM     Circle Time, Snacks, Announcements

3:15 – 4:30 PM     Homework Rooms or Indoor/Outside Recreation

4:30 – 6:00 PM     Indoor or Outside Recreation, Clean-Up

The fee for the after-school program for students attending these schools is as follows:

Category                       After School

st Child/Family             $85.00/week

Family Registration Fee  $85.00/annual

Extended childcare service is also available from 7:00 AM – 6:00 PM on days when the Charleston County School District is closed for teacher in-service, workdays and holidays.

The weekly fee listed above is for a full week (5 days) of after school program care and transportation. This amount is payable every week during the school year except for days or weeks the Charleston County School District is closed due to in-service days, workdays or holidays. We do not provide ‘drop-in’ or ‘occasional’ childcare service. School closings will result in a proportional reduction for each day the public schools are closed, and your child does not attend our after-school program. Fee adjustments may also be made if the schools are closed for extended holiday periods, teacher in-service days, etc. and your child does attend the extended childcare program and/or holiday day camps we provide.

Please note our after-school program closes promptly at 6:00 PM. Parents/guardians who pick-up their child (ren) after the regular closing time will be charged a late fee of $1.00/minute.

Payment may be made by check or credit card in the Preschool office or via our online system (www.jamesislandpresbyterian.org). If using the online system, please note that payment is for after school.

Questions regarding your account may be directed to Mrs. Katie Ard (795-3137; Katie@jamesislandpc.org )

Payment for after school care is expected on the first day on the week. After school care will be discontinued for families whose accounts are more than two (2) weeks behind in payment.

Thank you for your attention to these payment expectations.
