How could we have signed our son up for enrollment in the full time program at HES?
Olentangy’s limited all-day everyday kindergarten program is designed to provide additional academic and social assistance to approximately 300 students most in need of these services. Students were invited to join the program based on their performance on the screenings administered during kindergarten registration appointments.
Can you provide the school hours for the kindergarten program for the 2012-13 school year?
Currently most of Olentangy’s elementary schools operate from 9:05 a.m. until 3:45 p.m. The exceptions are Alum Creek, Indian Springs, Oak Creek and Scioto Ridge, which begin at 8:50 a.m. and end at 3:30 p.m. It is possible that these times may change slightly by the 2012-13 school year because Olentangy carefully examines all school times each year to ensure the most efficient transportation schedule.
Does the school offer or partner with any child-care options for before or after normal school hours?
The YMCA has a before-school and after-school care program called the Y-Club at each of Olentangy’s elementary schools. Morning care begins at 7 a.m. and after care ends at 6 p.m. Click here for more information on the program.
Is there a list of daycare centers that the school district will bus children from/to before/after school?
Olentangy does not offer transportation to and from daycare centers. However, many local daycare providers offer their own transportation. If you are interested in this option, it is best to contact the daycare providers in your neighborhood to see if they offer this service.
