SISD is exploring the possibility of offering extended care for students who do not qualify for ACE for the 2024-2025 school year.
The program would follow the ACE calendar for days of operation. Programming would run from dismissal to 5:30 p.m. Students can be picked up, dismissed with walkers or ride the after school bus home. There is no penalty for attendance or early pick ups in paid programming.
Please fill out this survey by March 1st with your interest: https://bit.ly/3uFuHTC
