Current Parents Register Here

Aftercare

From Dismissal until 5:45 PM each day, Aftercare provides a safe and nurturing environment for students to learn and play in a less structured program than that of the school day. Every day of the week, our activity facilitators provide leadership and instruction to foster creativity and provide avenues for self-expression through planned activities. Current Aftercare partners and classes include: Cooking, Chess, Music Kids, Challenge Island, Hyde Park School of Dance, Robotics with STEAM Academy, and more!

Breakfast Club

Breakfast Club is Ancona's answer to before-school care. Beginning at 7:30 am, Breakfast Club is available for students of all ages and includes a nutritious breakfast—often made by the students themselves.

Ancona Extra

Days off for students don't necessarily mean days off for parents and caregivers. That's where Ancona Extra comes in! Ancona Extra offers robust, full-day childcare on parent-teacher conference days and select holidays.

Complimentary student drop-in to Ancona Extra is also available on conference days during the duration of the child's conference.
