Late Start Fridays

August 20, 2019 by WCA Office Staff

This initiative provides more quality time for our teachers to collaborate on professional development. On these days, teachers arrive early and classes start 45 minutes late, allowing our Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) extra time to accomplish their objectives.

Late Start Drop-Off Guidelines

  • The regular school day will be from 9:00 am–12:00 pm for our half-day students, 9:00 am–3:10 pm for Elementary, and 9:00 am–3:20 pm for Secondary. On half days, the school day will be from 9:00 am–12:00 pm for all grades.
  • Those parents who pay for Before Care may drop their children off at the normal time of 7:00–7:50 am. Mrs. Schlaman will provide her regular level of supervision for them. Drop-in Before Care is not available on Fridays. 
  • Supervision is available (at no extra charge) from 7:50–8:40 am, only for families whose work schedules prevent dropping off after 8:40 am. Due to Covid-19 limitations on gathering sizes, registration is required (below). 
  • Kindergarten–12th grade students should arrive between 8:40–9:00 am. Preschool/Pre-K students should arrive between 8:50–9:10 am. Please follow the standard procedures for drop-off, including symptom checks. 
*Visit the school calendar to see which dates do not apply for late-start.
 

Registration for Late Start Friday Supervision (7:50–8:40 am)

If your work schedule prevents dropping off after 8:40am on Fridays, please use this form to register for supervision (no extra charge). This form will reserve a space for your children every Friday morning. 

If you are already registered for Before Care on Fridays, you do not need to submit this form. Drop-in Before Care is not available on Fridays.
