The minimum contract requirements are for 10 months. You can extend your contract into the summer months for an additional charge. There is a monthly charge to extend care into our summer programming. Please see the tuition sheet for pricing.
What is the schedule for the day?
The official school day goes from 8:30 AM - 3 PM. Before and After school care is provided from 7-8:30 AM and 3-6 PM if you need it.
If you have a half day student the morning session is from 8:30 AM - 11:15 AM and the afternoon session goes from 12:15 PM - 3 PM
The schedule for the year matches that of our Preschool through Eighth grades, with the exception of early dismissal days where the Toddler program will be open regular hours, and several noted days off where the Toddler program remains open when PS - 8 is closed..

What supplies should I bring with my child?
Please bring a blanket, crib sheet, backpack with diapers, wipes, ointment, 2 changes of clothes (you can leave things in your cubby). If your child is bringing lunch, pack a lunchbox with lunch. If you choose to order from our caterer, lunch will be delievered to their classroom at lunchtime. We will be supplying a morning and an afternoon snack. Morning only students do not need to pack a lunch.
Please make sure to label your child's personal items so they always make it back home.
You can see the full list of Toddler Supplies here.
How do I order hot lunch?
Your lunch can be ordered through your Family Portal in FACTS. If you'd like to buy daily milk for the year, you can get a milk form in the main office and we will bill your account.
What do I do if my child needs medication?
Please fill out the medication form found under our forms and bring the medication with you to school to leave in our nurse's area. Please keep it in original packaging and label it with a ziplock with your child's name.
https://www.stcharlesb.org/forms The form for medication is called the Medication Authorization Form
Does my child need to be potty trained?
No! Each child at this age range is at a different point developmentally. Potty Training Plans will be worked individually with the teacher and each family.
Will there be a uniform requirement for this age?
No. At this age, we expect to play and mess and have fun, so no uniforms until our 3 year old program. We ask that the students come in school ready clothes - no jammies! Please make sure to wear closed toed shoes with socks and when it is cold, send a coat as we will play outside! To ease potty time, please weat clothes that our students can easily navigate in the bathroom.
What about naps?
There will be dedicated time for naps with cots for each child. We will have 1 guaranteed nap time after lunch.
How many students and teachers will be in the classroom?
In 24-25, we will have 2 classrooms, supporting 27 students. We will have 5 teachers supporting our toddler program students.
Where do I drop off and pick up?
This program is in our convent behind our main building. For toddlers, you will pick up and drop off in the Zone behind the convent by the gym. You can also use the entrance on the Meyers street side to walk to the convent.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mrs. O'Reilly or Mrs. Turner. We are glad to answer any questions!
