St. Rita Catholic School

The After School Childcare program at St. Rita School was created out of an expressed need for convenient, quality and affordable child care for our students and their families.

After School Childcare is provided from 2:45 - 6 pm daily (preschool - grade six). On days when school dismisses early, After Care will be provided from the early dismissal time and will run until 6pm.

After school childcare for preschool students is located in the Little Falcon Learning Center classroom in the Middle School building.

After school childcare for grades K-6 is located in the Primary School. This is an ideal location as it is comfortable and familiar to the students, spacious enough to allow freedom of movement, and allows enough table space to support the students in completing their daily homework assignments. In addition, a “Quiet” classroom is provided from 3pm to 4pm for students wishing to complete homework without distraction.

Weather permitting, the children will spend time outside to unwind and play. Healthy snacks are provided, as well as, crafts and activities for all After School Childcare students. Adult instructors are certified in First Aid and CPR.
