CHILD CARE PROGRAMS
Families choose to enroll their children at Collegium Charter School (CCS) for many reasons.
One common reason is our onsite Before-School Care, After-School Care, and Camp Collegium child care programs. Dedicated CCS employees supervise the three programs and are available to assist families during the school year and for four weeks each summer.
Before School Care
Registered BSC students are supervised by BSC staff from 6:30 am until 7:30 am. When BSC ends at 7:30 am, students are escorted to their designated buildings. They are then supervised by CCS staff until being dismissed to their homeroom classrooms at 8:00 am. Students not registered for BSC can arrive as early as 7:30 am via the Parent Drop-Off Line or their assigned school bus.

graders the chance to develop leadership and teamwork skills through hands-on training and guided experiences with campers and staff. Admission is competitive and requires an
application and recommendations, making participation a valuable educational experience rather than a paid job. While the program equips students for future roles, completing it does not guarantee employment at Camp Collegium.
