Program & Registration Information
Kidcare is a recreational extended care program for students enrolled in grades K-5 in the East Windsor Regional School District. We provide a safe, friendly, and stimulating program through both group and individual activities. Outside activities, gym activities, homework assistance, crafts, and quiet play help to create a positive before and after-school experience for your child.
The Kidcare program offers five-day, four-day, and three-day-a-week programs. All fees are monthly, and all plans require you to select in advance exactly which days of the week you will be sending your child. These days will remain the same for the duration of the contract.
