Extended Day Program

The St. Matthew extended day program was created to provide valuable assistance to the working families of St. Matthew Catholic School. Our goal is to provide activities within a Catholic environment, complimentary to the phlosophy and value systems of our school.

Children are engaged in developmentally appropriate activites including a structured balance of play, creative activities, and completion of the homework that was assigned by their homeroom teachers. The children stay with their peer groups in their own grade levels under the supervision of a qualified and caring staff.

The afterschool care program is open to St. Matthew Catholic School students only. Admission is based on availability by grade level. Families can participate regularly in the program or choose to use the program as needed for a minimal, pro-rated fee.

Before School Care Program: 6:45 am - 7:50 am

There is no charge for before school care. However, a-la-carte breakfast options are available for purchase in the Cafeteria.

Extended Day Program: 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm

A healthy afterschool snack is provided for all students in the extended day program.
