[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is someone, and it really seems like one person, who has completely derailed this conversation with their intense and frankly unhealthy dislike of a political candidate and is spreading false information.

But on the topic, these are advertised before the lottery and except in extremely rare cases do not change during a child's tenure. I am no charter advocate at all but it seems like aftercare is considered for coverage.

The bigger concern is whether it disrupts learning but as someone who went to a public school with monthly late starts it's generally not a huge deal.[/quote]

My Kids have a 1pm Wednesday dismissal and while I don't love it, I knew about going in. It has gotten easier as my kids have gotten older and they need less direct supervision after school. They do not go to aftercare regularly as I am self employed and my hours are flexible but during especially busy times they sometimes do drop in aftercare on Wednesday’s which is great to have as an option when needed.

I would though be thrilled if it were moved to Fridays. There are a few times of the year where we have pulled the kids out early on Fridays to get a jump on traffic when we are doing weekend travel and there are always other families doing the same. There would less disruptions and lost learning time shifting to Friday. [/quote]
