Register for our Extended Learning Program.

 

Global Citizens Public Charter School offers a robust Extended Learning Program. We offer Art, Robotics, Coding, Drama, Spanish, Mandarin, Capoeria, Homework Help, and much more! In addition, snacks and daily fitness activities are offered to our students.

Registration for our Extended Learning Program for the 2025-2026 school year is officially open.  Registration will remain open on a rolling basis until all available seats are filled. While we aim to accommodate as many families as possible, we anticipate reaching capacity and forming a waitlist. We will continually evaluate the waitlist to accommodate as many families as possible.

  • Registration Process for Returning Students: All returning students should use this link to register for our Extended Learning Program. You will be prompted to complete the registration form and will be waitlisted for your designated classroom. As a reminder, no registration fee is required for returning students (that were part of the program during the 2024-2025 school year). 

  • Registration Process for New Students: New students, including siblings or any child who was not enrolled in our Extended Learning Program during the 2024–2025 school year, must complete the New Student Registration Form and pay a $50.00 registration fee here.

  • Procare App: Families are encouraged to download the Procare App on their smartphones (Procare is both Android and apple friendly).

  • Registration Fee: This registration fee will reserve your child's space in the program. The registration fee is non-refundable should you decide not to enroll your child in the Extended Learning Program.

  • Registering multiple students: If you have more than one student that you are registering for the Extended Learning Program, please plan to submit only one registration form and one fee. You will receive an automated response from the system after you process your registration.

  • Confirmation: Once your registration has been approved, you will receive a confirmation email of acceptance to our Extended Learning Program. 

Invoicing and Billing

  • Invoices will be issued on the 1st of each month and are due by the 5th of the month. For example, the first invoice will be generated on September 1, 2025, covering the period from August 25, 2025, to September 30, 2025, and will be due on September 5, 2025. 

  • Payments can be made conveniently through the Procare app or website using: 

    • Credit/Debit Cards:  2.7% + $0.30 processing fee

    • ACH Bank Transfer:  $1.00 flat fee

    • Bounced ACH payments:  $3.5 fee per instance

    • Bounced credit card payments:  No additional fee at this time

Pricing 

The monthly cost for Extended Learning is fixed and evenly distributed across the school year.  The total cost is calculated based on the full academic year, including all scheduled closures, breaks, and holidays.  That amount is then divided into equal monthly payments. This means that even in shorter months (such as November, December, April, and June), the monthly cost remains the same.  There is no prorating, as days off have already been factored into the annual pricing.

Late Pickup Policy

Our Extended Learning Program ends promptly at 6:00 pm. We understand that occasional, unavoidable delays may happen, so we offer a one-time courtesy grace period of up to 5 minutes (until 6:05 pm) per school year.

Please note the following:

  • This grace period is intended for rare emergencies and should not be used regularly.

  • If late pickups become a pattern, we will reach out to discuss a plan that supports your family’s needs while respecting program expectations.

Late Fees

  • After your one-time grace period has been used, late fees will apply starting at 6:01 pm

  • At 6:05 pm (or at 6:01 pm if you have already used your one-time grace period), a fee of $5.00 per minute, per child, will be charged.  This is based on the time your child signed out by a staff member.

  • If your child is not picked up by 6:30 pm, and we have not been able to reach a parent or emergency contact, we may contact Child and Family Services to ensure your child’s safety and well-being.

Timely pickup is critical to keeping all students safe and to honoring the time and responsibilities of our staff.

Cancellation Policy

By enrolling in the Extended Learning Program, families are committing to the full school year.  However, we understand that plans may change.

If your family needs to withdraw mid-year, you must notify us in writing no later than the 15th of the month prior to the month you wish to cancel.  For example:

  • To avoid being charged for June, you must notify us by May 15th.

  • If cancellation is submitted after the 15th, the full charge for the upcoming month will still apply.

This policy ensures we can plan staffing and resources effectively while supporting families with flexibility when needed.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Lataija Gilmore, Extended Learning Coordinator, at lgilmore@globalcitizensschool.org.
