Bear Care is a licensed childcare program offering enrichment for students that provides developmentally appropriate education based on the same instructional components studied in school.  We offer homework help, music, art, technology, reading, writing, and math activities.  We have highly-skilled staff and low student-teacher ratios.

We are open year round providing childcare for students of SCES, TES, and Preschool.  We operate before and after school for the K-5 program and are open on all breaks, school closings, and most snow days from 6:00am - 6:00pm excluding holidays. 

We operate 6:00am - 6:00pm Monday - Friday at the preschool program, excluding holidays.
