After School Routine
The Bear Creek Plus Coordinator collects students from their classrooms beginning at 3:15 p.m. Students are given the opportunity to enjoy a snack from home before being escorted to their Bear Creek Plus classrooms, ready to begin class at 3:45 p.m.
Late Pick-up Fee
Please note that class end times vary, and parents are expected to pick up their children promptly at the end of each session. Late pick-up will result in a $25 charge per 15 minutes (credit card on file will be charged automatically).
Refund and Withdrawal Policy
Students wishing to withdraw before the spring session withdrawal deadline may receive a full refund. No refunds will be issued after midnight on March 2, 2025.
Refunds are not issued if a child is dismissed due to disciplinary action. The Bear Creek School reserves the right to cancel programs or sessions prior to an event based on insufficient enrollment. In this event, a full refund for the specific class will be issued.
Switching between classes may only be approved by the Bear Creek Plus Coordinator; no refunds or partial refunds will be administered due to a switch, and if the cost of the new session is greater than the session being replaced, the price difference will be charged to the student. All changes are based on availability and age requirements.
Attendance Policy
We will take attendance as part of Bear Creek Plus in order to keep track of students. We do not prorate a class for days missed due to vacations, illness, or other activities.
