EXTENDED DAY REGISTRATION & Change policy
Families must register children for extended day and enrichment for each session (fall, winter, and spring.) After registration closes, your child’s extended day registration for that session carries over from month-to-month for the session. Extended day runs for an entire session (fall, winter, spring) unless you request a change. Extended Day services are billed monthly. If you need to increase, decrease, or change the days your child joins us for Extended Day, you may do so at the beginning of any month as long as there is space available to accommodate your needs. All extended day change requests received after general registration closes will incur a $25 change fee PER REQUEST and must be made via the PS 154 After School Extended Day Change Form. Extended Day change requests may take up to 2 weeks to process and do not take effect until you have received a confirmation email from the PS 154 Staff. You must re-register your child for Extended Day for each session.
CLUB DROP POLICY
You can access registration for each session via your Amilia SmartRec account. Once your registration is complete, you may request to drop or change clubs using the PS 154 After School Club Drop Form. Forms received after registration closes will incur a change fee according to the following schedule:
0% of the club tuition will be forfeited for drop requests received between the start of general registration and the end of general registration.
25% of the club tuition will be forfeited for drop requests received between the end of general registration and the first day of club session.
