Beyond the Bell

Early Care is provided before classrooms open, beginning at 7:30 am. There is no fee for this service and registration is not required. Early care is located in the Corson Lobby; families will need to walk their child in and check in with Early Care staff.

PMFS’s after-school program is called “Beyond the Bell”, or “BtB” for short. BtB is designed to provide children across all grades with a less structured after-school experience, similar to living in a community with a big backyard and many neighbors with whom to play. 

The program runs from 3-6 pm daily (except on half days) and includes an afternoon snack and a mix of organized and free play activities, such as: pick-up games of soccer or basketball, crafts, board games, and nature play. Students can also choose to complete their homework during an optional, supervised period of homework help.

There are two sessions of BtB. The first runs from September to late January, and the second from the end of January to the end of the school year. Students can register for one to five days of regular attendance during each session. Days are not interchangeable from one week to another; enrollment is for set days only. Students who are not registered to attend BtB may also “drop-in” on any given day for a fee.

• Confirmation of your registration
• An invitation to register with Procare, our billing and attendance app. Returning BtB families will not need to re-register.
• Children who register for 3-5 days a week will receive a bill for the fee. Fifty percent of the total is due before the first day of school.  If you sign up for 1 or 2 days of regular attendance, you will be billed through Procare weekly at the drop-in rate.

• 5 days a week: $1550 

• 4 days a week: $1425

• 3 days a week: $1250
