extended days at wcps

Extended Day runs from 2:30 – 3:30 PM or 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday. The dates for are August 20, 2025 - May 19, 2026.

We will follow the WCPS school calendar for holidays,  staff training days and early dismissal days. We will also follow Metro Schools Schedule for weather related closings.

The cost for extended days (2:30 - 3:30) is $16 per day. The cost for extended day (2:30 - 5:00) is $40 per day. You must commit to cover your chosen day(s) for the entire session. There is no registration fee. Half of your program cost will be deducted through Tuition Express in August 2025 . The second payment is due in January 2026. You may extend your child only on the days they are attending preschool.

Extended Day will be a time for your child to enjoy an afternoon snack, have free play options, participate in creative activities and be read to. Your child’s teacher will escort them to their Extended Day classroom, if it is in a different room than their regularly attended classroom.

Extended Day is for the sole use of families in 

which both parents are working full time and used only during parent's working hours. Church members have priority. 

In the case that we receive more applications than spots available we will hold a lottery draw to fill spots. We have very few staff members to work on Fridays so will only be able to take a few students.
