Payments may be made electronically through SchoolCash (linked above) or at the school by cash or check.
Insufficient Funds
All returned checks are subject to a service fee. Upon notification, the Program Director will contact the family and the following procedures must occur. The amount of the returned check, plus the service fee must be paid in cash to Harns Marsh Elementary. Further attendance for the Dawn to Dusk Program will not be allowed until fees are paid.
Hours of Operation:
Early Dismissal Days:
There are AM programs on these days but no PM fee-based programs on these days. On these weeks the flat rate will be prorated. (Ex. 4 day week = $40.00 flat rate).
Registration & Weekly Fee:
-
- $1 per minute late charge per child if child is picked up after closing time. Late fees need to be paid upon arrival.

This is a pre-paid program. Accounts must be kept current. Payments are due on the Friday prior to the participating week.

Due to Florida Statue, any account not paid by the Friday prior to the participating week, will result in your child/children not being able to attend our program until your account is brought current.

Important Note
If at 7:00 p.m. your child has not been picked up, or a call has not been received from a parent, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office and the Department of Children and Families will be contacted. Your child will be taken to an overnight facility. Please do not place your child or the school in this position.

Children will always be safe, respect other students & adults, follow directions, and keep hands and feet to themselves.

Consequences:
1. Verbal warning (unless aggressive or inappropriate language)
2. Time out from group
3. Time out from group in office
4. Parent must sign discipline form for each behavior issue.
If a child receives three discipline write-ups, they will be dismissed from the program. If necessary, the director may call the parent and have the child removed immediately.

Flagrant disobedience and destruction of school property will not be tolerated. Parents will be notified of the first incident of misbehavior. Repeated instances of misbehavior, such as willful disobedience, inflicting harm to another child, stealing, or destruction of property, may result in suspension or permanent dismissal from the program.
Medication
Any medications that your child must take during the program hours must be registered with the program director. Please note head lice can sometimes be an issue in school settings due to the large number of children in close contact. If a case should arise, parents will be notified and the child will be isolated until pick-up. A child having lice will be permitted back into the program when the child is cleared by school personnel.
Dress Code
Sneakers are recommended for students in the Dusk to Dawn Program. Please put your child’s name on personal belongings. Toys, games, etc., are not permitted in school and should not be brought to the program.
