Please note: A current policy from the handbook will now be enforced with our billing.  The handbook states: “Children will be charged a minimum of one hour when attending A.R. Kids Club.”  This means that children that attend any given day will be charged a minimum of one hour for that day.  For example, if your child attends for 15 minutes from 3:10-3:25, you will be charged a full hour.  If your child attends for 1 hour and 15 minutes, you will be charged for one hour and fifteen minutes (prorated by the minute after the first hour).  If your child does not attend, you will not be charged.

Schedule:
Parents will be sent a weekly scheduling Google document or access to ARKC’s Tablet to fill out weekly.
It is mandatory that this document be filled out weekly in order to staff correctly to comply with DHS guidelines. Parents that do not fill out the electronic or paper document each week and their child is in attendance, will be charged an extra $.20/hour or an extra $.50/full or half day for each day that they are unscheduled. Please notify us if your child will be absent. If your child’s schedule should change during the school day, please call Anamosa Raiders Kids Club and leave a message. If you know of an absence in advance, either provide Anamosa Raiders Kids Club with a written note, let our staff know or call the program site.
