The Eastern Suffolk BOCES Extended Day Enrichment Programs annual enrollment for the 2020-21 school year has been posted.   All families must purchase this enrollment before purchasing monthly or weekly program fees.  Please complete the enrollment information carefully.  

It is very important to the program that we have a correct email address that you will use for Extended Day Enrichment.  This will be used for all correspondence to the program and all invoicing and refunding. 

Cancellations and Re-Scheduling

Maintaining an accurate list of students attending the Extended Day Enrichment Program is an important task for our staff, especially in the afternoon session. In order to assist in this, all parents are to use the following procedures when adding a day, cancelling a day or making changes to the dates purchased.

1. For parents purchasing from the “weekly” fee schedule, days must be purchased by the Thursday prior to the beginning of each week.  For those purchasing from the "monthly" fee schedule must do so by the last Thursday of the month prior to the beginning of the new month.  If a session is needed and you were unable to purchase ahead you may add your child by contacting the school and email the program that morning.  The invoice rate is higher for both AM & PM sessions.

2. In the event a child will not be able to attend a session, one parent must call the main office of the school the child attends and then email the Extended Day Program at enrichment@comsewogue.k12.ny.us.   This applies to students on the weekly pay schedule as well as students on the monthly payment schedule.

3. For persons who purchase by the weekly rate, 50% of the purchase price will be refunded on days your child cannot attend provided the program is notified. The monthly rate will not be refunded at all.

4. While it is understood that unforeseen events occur and changes are necessary, changes should be kept to a minimum so that schedule change fees are avoided.

Program Prices

• Daily rates for the AM Sessions are $8.00 per child and PM Sessions are $10.00 per child.
• The Monthly Payment will be at a 20% discount of the daily rate for a variety of options (see Pricing sheet).  
• There will be a Late Pick-Up fee at 6:01p.m. of $6.00, and $6 for each 15 minutes therafter.
• Weekly Schedules will be available for purchase on the website – they change at 10pm on Thursdays.  If a parent needs to add an afternoon session for the coming week after the schedule switch at 10pm on Thursday, it is necessary that the changes process be followed.  The parent must email the program at  enrichment@comsewogue.k12.ny.us  and call their child’s school.  This will ensure that the child will be sent to the program after school, and not home.  No advance notice is required for additional morning sessions.  Each addition (morning or afternoon) will result in a higher rate per child per day.
• When Full Day Programs are available, the cost will be $31.00 per child when purchased in advance on the website, or $41.00 per child if invoiced for the day as an addition.
