Special Sessions

Extend-A-Care for Kids offers child care during winter and spring breaks, and operates during certain student holidays.  To meet the needs of working parents, we provide optional, all-day child care to Extend-A-Care students from 7:15 am – 6:30 pm (7:00 a.m. for students in Hays CISD).  These "Special Session" programs operate at selected schools.  Additional fees and registration are required for all-day child care. Registration details including fees and activities will be handed through the centers to Extend-A-Care families and available online through your registration account approximately one month prior to each holiday.  

Students are enrolled on a first come, first served basis.  Parents registering their child for full-day child care must complete and return the registration form and required fee to Extend-A-Care's business office prior to the registration deadline.  Fee assistance is available to qualifying families seeking to enroll their child in full-day child care.

Information about locations will be posted at least 1 month prior to holiday.
