Programs

Our Program is located in the George B. White Building at 8 Raymond Road, Deerfield, New Hampshire. The entrance to use when picking up your child is the glass door located between “Backwoods Barber" and the Police Department.

When you enroll in the After School Clubhouse (ASC) program, you will be enrolled for the entire year. You can choose to enroll your child for 2-5 consistent days per week, with any changes requiring a two-week notice. Our cancellation policy also requires a two-week notice. A credit card must be on file in your RecDesk account for weekly payments, or you can pay by cash or check one month in advance. The cost of the ASC program is $12 per day, or $60 per week. There is a once per school year initial membership fee of $45.

If you are enrolling more than one child (siblings) to ASC, you qualify for a discounted sibling rate. Each child must be registered.


How students will get to the After School Program:
Students will get on the bus designated for the Deerfield Parks & Recreation’s (DPR) After School Program leaving from Deerfield Community School (DCS) each day. If your child does not attend DCS (home schooled) it will be up to you to get your child to the program.

As parents, we ask you to please do the following:
1. Give your child’s teacher written authorization for the dates that you would like your child to be on the DPR’s After School bus.
2. Confirm that same schedule with our program (via email, in person, or by phone), and make sure it is consistent with your payment. A weekly schedule will be sent via email to all families as well as to DCS and Dail Transportation on the Friday before the following week. This schedule will be based on payments received on Thursday. Multiple week /monthly payments are an option as well. If the payment/schedule is not received on Wednesday for the upcoming week, you will need to contact the Parks & Recreation office for availability.
3. Please notify the school and DPR with any changes due to absenteeism or other circumstances.
4. When the bus arrives at our program, your child will be checked off the bus with the list of the day’s attendees. You will be notified as soon as possible if there are any discrepancies.

Picking up your child:
Our concern with child pick-up is always safety. Staff will always ask for photo ID, unless they are certain who the parent or authorized pick-up is. Be prepared each day with photo ID. On your consent form you may list other adults that are too authorized to pick up your child. However, you should always inform us in advance if there is to be someone other than the legal guardian and/or parent picking up your child, even if they are listed on the consent form.

Making this system work effectively for you:
Choose your emergency contacts carefully as you may want to rely on them for pick-ups. You may add to this list whenever you choose. Talk to your emergency contact and make sure they understand the policies, particularly around the issue of identification. Lastly, while we may know many or most of the families, please be patient with our need to see identification. We will hold all of our staff accountable to this system.

Pick up time:
All children are expected to be picked up by 6:00pm. Please be respectful of this and call the ASC (603-370-2596) if you know you will be later than 6:00pm. Consistent late pickups may result in additional fees.
