Childcare Days are days the School is open but there is no class instruction. Childcare is made available to assist working parents. These dates are all listed on the DGM App 'HOLIDAYS AND IN-SERVICE CALENDAR' icon.
Please fill out the form below for any childcare dates that you are interested in. It is imperative that you register your child/children (this includes Extended Day children) if you wish to have your child receive care. If you are not registered, we cannot extend childcare services to you since we base our staffing needs on the number of children who are registered.
If you do not register your child during the registration period and miss the deadline; you may contact the front desk to add your child to the waitlist. On the Childcare Day, you may call the school at 9:00am to see if we can accommodate your child for that day.
NOTE: Extended tuition rates include Childcare Days. All other tuition rates do not include Childcare Days and will be billed as follows: Half Day students: A flat rate of $65.00 per child; School Day Children: $117 per child. Please see the Parent Handbook under Financial Terms and Conditions.
Hours of operation for ALL Childcare Days: 7:00am-4:00pm
If you register for a Childcare day and your child does not attend, you will be billed a flat "No Show" fee of the daily flate rate and no refunds will be issued for absences, regardless of the reason. If you register for multiple Childcare days during a break and your child does not attend, this fee will be billed for each missed day. If you have multiple children, this fee will apply cumulatively to each. This accounts for the school’s expense in staffing in anticipation for each registered child.
If you register for a Childcare day and need to cancel that registration for any reason, you may remove your child from the list up to 2 school days prior to the Childcare days requested. This must be done via email or written notice to the front desk. With timely notice of cancellation, you will not be billed the above fee.
