THIS PROGRAM ENDED ON FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2020 AND IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO SUBMIT REGISTRATIONS.

As we turn our attention to the upcoming school year it is important to understand the complexities associated with providing the needed support to all families and students. Governor Ducey’s executive order allows for childcare services to continue within school districts and programs to remain which were running through the summer months. We understand many families are in need of childcare and we want to provide every opportunity possible to access the support you need. We have created a tremendous system with focus on student and staff health, including curbside dropoff/pickup, smaller grouping of students, daily staff health screenings, increased cleaning protocols and a variety of other strategic adjustments aligned to the health needs of our community.
