Londonderry’s Afterschool program is designed to meet the needs of Londonderry School students, from preschool through 8th grade, who must stay at school past the end of the school day because their parents are working. We strive to provide a quality licensed afterschool program that is as “homelike” as possible.

Our program provides teacher and child-planned activities as well as a wide range of free-choice activities such as art, games, books, dramatic play (puppets, dress-ups), outdoor games and homework time (if requested). Snack is provided every day and occasionally the children have a chance to make their own snack. The staff’s role is to act as a resource, listening ear, and individual support for the children. Discipline focuses on logical consequences and inner growth rather than on punishment.

The program offers care for students on a half hour fee basis. Students may attend on an occasional basis, a few days per week, or five days a week every week. Enrollment varies considerably day to day and hour to hour, as children are picked up continuously from 2:45 p.m. on, most leaving by 4:30 p.m., with a handful attending past 5 p.m.

Fees are $2 per half hour for any part of the half hour beginning at 3 p.m. All children should be picked up by 5:45 p.m. Late fees will be charged after 6 p.m. Before-school hours (7-8 a.m.) will be billed at the same rate and will be included on your afterschool bill. Afterschool fees are billed monthly.
