Surround Care
Surround Care provides a Christian atmosphere where children can play, learn, and grow. We offer care before and after school, and full day care on most days. When school is not in session, due to conferences, snow days, holidays (spring break and Christmas break), we have limited availability. The Surround Care schedule will be determined based on the number of children signed up and staffing.
Surround Care offers a summer camp in June, July, and August. Children must be 2 ½ years old and potty trained to participate.
