Childcare 2020-21 School Year Registration


As you know Beyond the Bell and the YMCA have been working to determine new fall enrollment dates. As the district continues to plan to have students physically present in school this fall, our goal is to also open before and after school childcare in the fall.

As we have since March, we will remain flexible in responding to new information, and we will pivot when specific strategies are not working. Our strategies will be revised and adapted depending on the level of viral transmission in the school and throughout the community and done with close communication with local public health authorities. Our priority is the safety and overall health of children, staff, and communities based on available evidence.

We have determined new childcare enrollment dates as follows:
