  1. KIDS’ STUFF OFFERS SCHOOL READINESS ACADEMICS EVERY MORNING FOR EVERY AGE GROUP, FROM TODDLERS THROUGH VPK, TO HELP PREPARE YOUR CHILD FOR SCHOOL.
PRESCHOOL/CHILDCARE DEFINITION

Childcare is defined as any time before or after academic hours, and/or a Childcare Day

(determined by the Pasco County School Calendar when preschool classes are not held due to public schools not being in session.)

  1. Morning-only attendees are considered Preschool.
  2. All-day attendees are considered Childcare.

PUNCTUALITY

Punctuality is very important for your child as a sense of structure, and a sense of respect to the other students. Program start and end times are as follows: 

  1. Toddler/Twos     8:30 – 12:15
  2. Threes                  8:30 – 12:30
    Pre-K                    8:30 – 2:30
  3. Primary K-5          9:00 – 3:00


TUITION

Payment for the current week is due by FRIDAY evening the week before.

A $10 fee is applied to ALL late payments received

A $40 fee is applied for each returned check

In the event two checks are returned, all future payments must be made by money order, cash, or credit card

  1. NO CREDIT FOR ABSENCES IS ISSUED FOR ANY REASON

ABSENTEE/VACATION POLICY

Full tuition is required even when your child is absent. 

Children enrolled in PRESCHOOL ONLY do not attend the childcare days.

Children enrolled full-time (CHILDCARE) are entitled to two weeks of vacation per year after 90 days of continuous enrollment (beginning in August).

Vacation credit is not provided for those enrolled after March 31, and for summer only.
