Extended Day Program
Mission Statement
The Lawrence Family Development Charter School (LFDCS) Extended Day Program provides care for children after the school day in grades K1 through 6th when the LFDCS schools are in session.
Extended Day offers a structured, safe environment for children while promoting their social, physical and academic growth. Children may participate in a variety of activities each day, including homework time, outdoor and/or gym play, arts and crafts, games, library, computer and enrichment.
The Extended Day Program includes a nourishing snack and drink. Homework time, outdoor play/gym and snacks are a part of each day; other activities vary depending on special programs and/or daily schedule changes.
