FREE Before and After Care!

At VCS, we are aware of the challenges many families face when trying to get their children to school and make it to work on time. We have a solution for you!

By filling out the CCAP form and applying to attend STARS we will provide a safe place for students to come to school. Hours are as early as 6:30 am and as late as 6:00 pm. STARS students are welcome to stay after school to work on homework, have some outside time, or play games.

These services are FREE (upon CCAP approval) for our K-5 students and available for 6-8 students for a fee.

Regular instructional time begins at 7:40 am, and ends at 3:30 pm.
