Before + After School Care

Calhoun Christian School provides a trusted place for your children in preschool and elementary to be cared for before and after school. Our Extended Care program offers your child a safe, nurturing environment where they will have the opportunity to learn and grow as a student and individual. Extended Care will offer your child structured activities, outside time, a healthy snack and time to do homework.

Calhoun Christian School’s Extended Care program is open: 

  • Morning Care: Monday to Friday, 7:00am - 7:45am
  • After School Care: Monday to Friday, 2:40pm - 6:00pm

The Extended Care program is located on the north side of our building, through our preschool entrance, in Room 110. 

Our Extended Care Program is open during the school year and is available on all full school days. If students have a partial day, a snow day, or a scheduled day off, such as Christmas and Spring Break, Extended Care is not available.

Calhoun Christian School's Extended Care program is licensed by the State of Michigan Bureau of Regulatory Services. We accept all children and families of Calhoun Christian School without regard to race, creed, religion, national origin, sex, or special needs. Licensing inspections, special investigation reports and all related Corrective Action plans can be found online at www.michigan.gov/childcare

  • Extended Care Enrollment Conditions

    Upon submitting this agreement, the parent(s) / legal guardian(s) / responsible adult(s) and CCS agree to abide by the following:

    • This contract holds your child’s spot in our program, and the signature of the parent or guardian constitutes an agreement that the student’s extended care fees will be paid by the parent or guardian signing.
    • Extended Care will follow Calhoun Christian School’s schedule for closings. No extended care will be available for half days, snow days, or scheduled days off (holidays, school breaks, etc). Families will be expected to pay their contracted costs regardless of holidays, snow days, half days, unexpected closings, or a child’s absence for any reason (including illness, quarantine, vacation, appointment, parent day off, etc.), with the exception of Christmas Break and Spring Break.
    • Payments will be made biweekly to CCS and are NOT part of your monthly tuition payment, though the same program is used. Payments will be automatically withdrawn from the account you indicate during the Extended Care enrollment, through our FACTS Financial system (you can access this system at any time through the FACTS Family Portal’s Financial menu item). There is an annual FACTS fee of $55 per year that is charged to enroll into these automatic payments, but if you already are enrolled into a monthly payment plan, you will not have to pay the $55 twice.
    • FACTS will continue to try to pull missed payments 3 times, assessing a $25 late fee each time, until the payment goes through. Failure to make payments on time may result in the loss of childcare arrangements at the discretion of the Business Manager.
    • Additional fees of $1 for every (1) minute increment will be charged to the next bill for children picked up after their contracted pick-up time.
    • Accepting DHS payments will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
    • Either party can cancel this contract with a 2-week notice, in writing, to the other party. However, if Calhoun Christian School determines that in the best interest of your child or the other children, for reasons including but not limited to health, welfare and the safety of the other children, a child may be excluded from Extended Care. The contract will be terminated immediately, making this contract invalid. The parents of the excluded child will receive the prorated share of the extended care fees that have not been used as of the date of termination of this contract.
    • The parents/guardians, by signing this contract, agree to read and abide by the policies and procedures within the Extended Care Handbook.
