Before & After School Program

Welcome to the Sumner/Bonney Lake Recreation Department's Before & After School Program for the 2007-2008 School Year!
For Grades *K-5 (full time Kindergarten only)

Thank you for choosing the Sumner/Bonney Lake Recreation Department as your choice for before and after school activities for your child(ren). The Before & After School Activities Club serves children who attend Daffodil Valley, Emerald Hills, Bonney Lake, Maple Lawn, McAlder, Victor Falls, and Liberty Ridge
Elementary schools.

Because of the overwhelming response for before and after school care, the only plans available at our Maple Lawn/McAlder site are 3-5 days per week. However, we will still offer 1-2 day weekly care as well as 3-5 day weekly care at our Victor Falls/Liberty Ridge, Emerald Hills/Bonney Lake and Daffodil Valley Elementary (morning and afternoon) site(s).

The Daffodil Valley program will be located at Robert Miller Gymnasium for AM and PM care except for the months of November, December, January, and February, when the Daffodil Valley elementary students will be in Daffodil Valley Elementary School in the PM. During these months, the Sumner High
School Wrestling Program practices in the Robert Miller Gymnasium.

The Robert Miller Gymnasium is located directly behind Daffodil Valley Elementary School. Maple Lawn and McAlder students will be at Maple Lawn in the AM & PM. Emerald Hills/ Bonney Lake students will be at Emerald Hills Elementary AM and PM, Liberty Ridge and Victor Falls students will be at Liberty Ridge in the AM and PM. The students will be bussed to their respective schools and program sites. However, you must drop your children off at the AM site indicated.

The Parent Information Packet includes a payment schedule, contact phone numbers, and answers to our most asked questions. Please be sure to thoroughly read all of the material included in this packet and promptly turn in all necessary paperwork. We require a 50% deposit for September’s
payment and a fully completed registration form and immunization records to reserve your spot. Your spot will not be held until we receive your deposit and paperwork-no exceptions.

We appreciate those of you who use DSHS assistance in order to make your monthly payments. However, in the event that the total amount owed is not covered (by your monthly co-pay and the amount allotted by DSHS), you will be responsible for paying the balance each month. If you are unable
to make those payments, we will not be able to provide you with daycare.

Note: When there is a school closure or delay due to poor weather conditions, the Recreation Department sponsored Before and After School Program will likewise be affected. For example, if school is two hours late, the Before and After School Program will not open until 8:45 AM (which is two hours later than usual). If schools are closed, our program will also be closed.

If you have any questions, feel free to call the Recreation Department at (253) 891-6500. Thank you for supporting our program.
