Please
notify the Center by phone (301-345-8830) if you anticipate being late
to pick up your child or if your child will be arriving late (after 9
am) or absent for the day. We know that parents make every effort to arrive
on time. However, there may be emergencies or conditions that may delay
parents from picking up a child by 6:00 p.m. and the late fee is charged
to pay staff that remains after the center is closed.
In order to provide care for a child who is not picked up by closing
time, a late fee is charged at 6:06 p.m. (From 6:00 p.m. until 6:05 p.m.,
there is a grace period.) From 6:06 p.m. until 6:15 p.m. a late fee of
$5.00 will be charged. An additional $5.00 will be added for each 5-minute
interval or portion thereof after 6:15 p.m. paid that evening or the following
morning, to the staff person that has stayed with your child.
The Center Staff will notify State authorities for any child left on
the premises after 7:00 p.m. unless the Center has been notified that
arrangements have been made for the child to be picked up promptly. A
report of “an abandoned child" will be made to Protective Services
of the Department of Social Services. The child will be placed in their
protective custody.
A yearly calendar for the Center will be given at enrollment and again
at the beginning of each school year. You will be notified if there are
any variations to that schedule.
Emergency
Alerts
The Center will follow the PRINCE GEORGE'S PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM'S emergency
plan. If the Public School System opens late due to emergency circumstances
or inclement weather, the Center will open late also (ex. if public schools
open 2 hrs late, GCC opens at 9 am, etc.). If the Public School System
closes early, the Center will close early also & remain open until
the last child is picked up by parents. The Center does ask that parents
make arrangements to have children picked up early during dangerous conditions.
If the Public School System is closed for the day, the Center will be
closed for the day also.
