Before & After School Care/Summer

Registration is required every school year as well as every summer.  Registration will be done online.  For questions and registration links please email:   childcareregistration@wsdmi.org

For the 2024-25 school year, before and after school care is available at each of our nine elementary schools from 6:45 a.m. until school start time and from school dismissal until 6:00 p.m.

All schools provide child care on half days for children enrolled in the program, unless notified of a change by the department.

Child Care is closed at all locations when school is closed.

Our goal is to serve all families needing child care, without utilizing a waitlist.
