"I know that my children are loved and cared for in my absence."

Students who need extended care after school hours can participate in our CARES program (Children Are Receiving Extra Services) which runs from 3pm-6pm most days that school is in session.  The program provides time for homework, play in the gym and/or outside on the playground, board games, coloring, and more.  A snack and drink is provided each day.  This program is open to all children in Pre-Kindergarten through 8^th grade who attend our school.  The program is supervised by members of the faculty and staff of Pope John Paul II Regional Catholic Elementary School.
 
The charge for this service is $10 a day for one child, $17 a day for two children and $25 a day for three or more children.  You will be billed each month for the number of days your child(ren) are registered to attend the program. 
 
IMPORTANT REMINDER: The CARES program is closed on all snow days, in-service days, school holidays, and on days when the school closes early for emergencies and inclement weather. If the school closes due to an emergency or inclement weather, the CARES program will not be available for the safety of the staff. Parents/guardians must make arrangements with a relative, neighbor or friend as backup plan in the event the parent/guardian wil not be able to pick up their student at the appointed time.  Please be sure to list any and all individuals who may pick up your student in the event of an emergency closing on the appropriate form.  

If you are in need of the CARES program, please look for registration forms on Option C or click under Important Forms at left. All children attending MUST send in all forms PRIOR to attendance.

Should you have any questions please contact the CARES office at 610-384-5961 x 5410.
