2015-16 Extended Day Programs
Wilton Public Schools offers several extended day options to accommodate the various childcare needs of our families. These programs incorporate WPS guidelines to insure the health and safety of the student while supporting their physical, emotional, and social development. Daily schedules include some or all of the following age-appropriate activities:
- Guided Homework Time
- Recreation and Exercise
- Arts & Crafts
- Social Skills Development
- Health and Fitness Awareness
- Technology Skills Development
The Miller-Driscoll Before and After School Extended Day Programs offer parents the flexibility of having their child arrive at school early (7:00 - 9:00 a.m.) or stay at school late (3:30 - 6:30 p.m.) in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment.
The Cider Mill After School Extended Day Program (2:15 - 6:30 p.m.) focuses on providing guided homework time, supervised use of school technology lab, study skills, recreation and exercise opportunities. Families also have the advantage of preferred enrollment in our various Enrichment Programs, including the Cider Mill Conservatory of Music. The After School Extended Day Program provides additional flexibility for families looking to schedule music lessons, add Enrichment classes or after school teacher help by offering on-site childcare before or after their pre-arranged lesson or activity. Please see our discount programs to find out how you can make the most of this option.
