Extended Day Information and Application

Purpose

The goal of the Porter-Gaud Extended Day Program is to assist parents by providing after-school supervision for their children in a secure, happy, and relaxed setting. Students are encouraged to complete homework, read, make new friends, respect others, strengthen communication skills and try something new.  *Please read carefully as this year our Extended Day format and regulations have been updated to accommodate our current climate.  

Program

Our primary objective this year is to provide a safe, structured and productive environment.  Adherence to guidelines and safety regulations will be of the utmost.  The Auxiliary Team will assign seats according to homerooms and all students will be asked to follow the same protocol as they would during the school day.  It will be required to have previous registration, as no drop-ins will be allowed.  The students are provided time to complete homework, have snacks and enjoy the afternoon with a variety of games, arts & crafts and sports conducive to our social distancing and health guidelines.
