Extended Day Programs

Princeton Academy provides Extended Day Programs and classes for students in Kindergarten through Grade 8 every weekday.

Extended Day Programs are coordinated by LS Lead Classroom Teacher Vince Geraci. Programs are open to all students and are held on all full school days. Extended Day Programs are divided into three trimesters which cover the entire school year. Parents will have the opportunity to enroll in the fall, winter and spring.

Registrations for regular after school care and after school classes involve two separate charges. If you enroll your child in an after school class, you will have the option to add the After Care extension for $150 per class, per trimester.

The fall trimester for Extended Day Programs will begin on Wednesday, September 7, 2022 (the first full day of school) and end on Friday, December 16, 2022 (the beginning of Christmas Break).

Program Information, Fees and Policies

Before School Care

After School Care

MONDAY - FRIDAY

After School Care will consist of supervised, structured and unstructured playtime. Snacks will not be provided by the school. Students will eat their snack (brought from home) during dismissal, in their classrooms, prior to being brought to After School Care.

After School Care hours are 3:00-6:00 p.m. and is primarily for students enrolled in advance for the trimester. However, drop-ins are welcome and will be billed on a day-to-day basis. Since we are concerned about the proper supervision of students after regular dismissal, any child who has not been picked up by 3:20 p.m. will be sent to the After School Care and the family will be billed at the rate of $30 for the first hour. If your son remains in After School Care beyond 4:20 p.m., you will be charged a drop-in fee of $50. Drop-in billing will be mailed at the beginning of each month.

Extended Day Classes

Princeton Academy offers Extended Day Classes to students in Kindergarten through Grade 4. Classes meet 3:30-4:30 p.m. unless otherwise noted. Students may be enrolled in one class per day. Drop-ins are not permitted for Extended Day Classes.

YOGA, BALANCING YOUR CHAKRAS
Grades 2-4
Mondays 3:30-4:30 p.m.
MARCH 27 - JUNE 5
10 student limit
Price $140
In Sanskrit, the language of yoga, chakra means "wheel" or "energy center". These energy centers run along the spine and each one connects to a different human emotion or experience, like comfort, self-confidence, and love. When our chakras are balanced, we feel capable of handling our emotions and making the right decisions. The practices of yoga, mindful breathing, and meditation can help balance our chakras and make us feel whole and happy. Each class will focus on one chakra, including yoga poses, the color & associated qualities, and a daily positive affirmation. We will also be creating chakra cards that contain an overview of each chakra and a practice for home. The final class will be a "chakra party" where we enjoy foods from every color of the rainbow and complete our chakra cards!
