Warren Consolidated Schools is proud to offer our community a high-quality Latchkey program available before and after school for students in grades TK-5 who are registered in one of our twelve (12) elementary schools. Latchkey programs provide supervised care on a regular basis for children during hours of the day when school is not in session; and parents are not available. Some benefits include:
In order to ensure that all WCS families have the opportunity to participate in quality before and after school care, students must be registered in Latchkey and families must pre-select Latchkey dates of attendance a minimum of 2 weeks in advance (as space is available). Same day registration and “Drop-In” Latchkey Services are not available.
After completing the registration form and for additional school weeks, parents will pre-select dates of attendance in advance on a first-come, first-serve basis until the attendance date(s) are full.
When selecting the attendance dates in advance, WCS respectfully requests that you only select those dates that you know your son/daughter will attend. Please note that parents will be charged for all pre-selected dates, regardless of whether or not the student attends.
Before-school Latchkey is designed for families who need child care before school starts. Latchkey opens at 6:45am** and runs until the start of school. Students must be registered at one of the WCS twelve elementary schools in grades TK-5 to attend before-school Latchkey at their home school.
