School Age Care (SAC)

Hope Lutheran Church operates School Age Care (SAC) as part of our ministry to families.  This program is intended to meet the childcare needs and interests of families and students outside the traditional 8:00 am – 3:10 pm school schedule.  Any child enrolled in Hope Lutheran School may use School Age Care in grades Kindergarten through 8th grade.

SAC charges will begin ten minutes after dismissal. SAC is not available on legal holidays. Parents must come to the SAC Room when dropping off or picking up a child. The only exception is students in grades seven and eight may sign in themselves in the morning.  Once a student leaves SAC, he/she may not return that same day with exception of returning from a school-sponsored event (no dropping in and out). 

At the beginning of SAC in the afternoon, students are given time to play, eat snack and have quiet time to work on completing homework. SAC staff can provide clarification on instructions, but are not generally able to provide one-to-one academic support.
