SACC update for parents - Sept. 25
Good afternoon,
The purpose of this email is notification about our process for School-Age Child Care (SACC) for the 2020-2021 school year. Pending Board of Education approval of our Return to Learn plan on Monday, September 28 our SACC registration process and timeline will be communicated to our community.
We understand your need to receive this information in a timely manner as child care plans may need to be arranged differently once we return to Face to Face instruction. It is our goal to provide childcare services to as many returning School-Age Child Care families as possible; however, space is limited, and we cannot guarantee re-enrollment.
For returning families who have chosen Livonia Virtual, you may register during returning family registration and make monthly payments to reserve your childcare spot should you need it in the future.
The waitlisted families from last school year will be rolled over to the current school year waitlist. SACC staff will contact them should an opening occur at their school. Until then, please make an alternate plan. The following website may be able to assist you: www.greatstarttoquality.org
Newly interested families (including those with new kindergartners) will be given a date in a future communication to either enroll online (if space is available) or be added to an existing roll-over wait list (if applicable).
Assuming, on September 28th, the Board of Education approves the Return to Learn plan as presented on September 21st, we will send out a communication with specific registration information on Tuesday, September 29th.
Our potential SACC start date is Monday, October 12th.
