Our Before and After School Program takes learning and exploring to the next level with a wide variety of activities, and sports. Your child can play all their favorite games, make new friends or try something new all within the safety of the United Sports facility.
Our Kindergarten Extension Program offers Kindergartners enrolled in half-day kindergarten to spend their morning or afternoon at United Sports moving and having fun through a variety of fun games, sports, and activities.
Our Before School Program is offered from 6:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. with drop off directly at United Sports. Our shuttle vans will depart from our facility by approximately 8:30 a.m. every morning- or 20 min. prior to the start of your child’s school day.
Our After School Program provides vans to the schools each day between 3:20 p.m. and 3:40 p.m.- or within 10- 15 minutes of the end of your child’s school day – for pick up. We will then transport your child to our facility between 3:45pm and 4:15pm. Care lasts until 6:30 p.m. All parent pickup will take place at the United Sports facility.
Our Early Dismissal Program will begin at the end of the elementary school day ( approx. 12:15 p.m. for Collegium Charter School; approximately 11:55 a.m. for Caln and Reeceville Elementary Schools). This means that when you are registered for the After School Sports Enrichment program, whenever the students have half days, we pick them up and they come to United Sports for the afternoon. The program will continue to run until 6:30 p.m. on Early Dismissal days as well. This is included at no extra cost to your registration for the After School program.
Children registered for After Care (or Before & After Care Combo) are automatically enrolled to participate in early dismissal days.
Our Kindergarten Extension Program offers two sessions: a morning (AM) session for children enrolled in PM kindergarten and an afternoon (PM) session for children enrolled in AM kindergarten. The AM sessions runs from 6:30am until departure for school; the PM program runs from pick-up at school until 6:30pm.
During the program, children will engage in various sports, games, and activities, including a break for snack and crafts, and time for lunch before heading to school (or when they first arrive after AM Kindergarten)
United Sports will provide transportation to school for PM Kindergarten and from school for AM Kindergarten.
If a kindergartner needs to be dropped off before AM Kindergarten or picked up after PM Kindergarten , please visit the Before & After Care section of this page.
