Extended Care
Extended Care is a service to parents that offers a safe, nurturing environment for students before and after school. All St. Joachim students are registered in Extended Care through registration fees and therefore can use the program when needed. No prior arrangements are necessary so if parents get stuck or are running late, students will automatically go to Extended Care after pick up is over. Hourly rates will apply.
