FQA For After-school Programs at Key Element Learning

No! Our program is extremely flexible. Parents can customize their after-school schedule, from one day to five days per week, one class to two classes per day, in any configuration.

2. How does my child get to the After-School program? Do I have to pick him/her up at school dismissal to bring him/her there?

Key Element Learning staff members will pick up the children directly from their classroom teachers and bring them back to Key Element Learning. Other children may be dropped off at the Key Element Learning too by their parents.
