Extended Care NY
Limited Extended Care Program - New York
Welcome to HWIS Extended Day Care! HWIS provides a structured, supportive and fun Extended Care program for our families. We offer both Early Care and Aftercare to all HWIS day school students.
Early Care: We offer early care from 7:30am to 8:30am. Our nurturing and caring teachers are Mandarin, Spanish and English speaking. They provide a welcoming environment for children with morning music and interactive play. For our sleepy-head, non-morning types, our teachers are gentle and understanding. They help with the acclimation process for students needing more encouragement in the morning and help get them ready for the school day ahead.
Aftercare: In Aftercare, students are grouped by PreK 2's, PreK 3' & 4's and K-8th. Our Extended Care teachers are experienced in early childcare. They follow a timeline that includes a variety of daily activities. This structure has dedicated time for homework. Target Language homework is designed to be supported at home but can be self-guided by the student while in Aftercare. Our Extended Care teachers offer direct English homework assistance. Registration for Early and Aftercare is limited to a safe teacher/student number based on NYS guidelines and to ensure program quality. Therefore we do not allow drop-ins.
Day School, Afterschool and Enrichment Pick Up: We comply with the appropriate Teacher/Student ratios in After School. Therefore, enrichment students not picked up on time will not be placed in aftercare unless registered for it. Students not picked up on time will wait in the lobby but we have minimal supervision there due to staffing. Our staff at the front desk have many admin duties so they will not be able to supervise any children effectively. For Dayschool late pick up, families will still be charged the $32 aftercare daily rate after a 15 minute grace period. For aftercare pickups, a $10 fee will incur every 5 minutes past a 6:05pm grace period, to be added to your account.
Prorating: We do not offer prorating for aftercare and enrichment sign ups.
Contact: Please contact us if your child will be absent for any reason at afterschoolny@hwis.org.
Once registration is full for each group, families will automatically be placed on a waitlist.
