The Town of Southeast Parks & Recreation's Before & After Care Program is a childcare program certified by the State of New York. The main purpose of this program is to provide eligible children and their families with affordable and quality before and after school child care options.

After Care sessions take place on all days that the schools close at their regular times. There are no sessions on days of early dismissals or on days that the school has cancelled after-school activities due to weather or other concerns.
