Before school care

Do you leave  for work  in the mornings  before  your  child leaves for school? Then drop her off at our early morning, before school program. We make sure she is well cared for until she arrives safely at school.
In before school care, your child will receive a light breakfast, wake-up activities and a van ride to school.

After school care

Just because your child is having  fun doesn't mean he can't be learning and growing too! At MSCF's school-age day care program, your child's physical, mental and social skills are developed through a variety of  stimulating and engaging activities such as sports, recreation, the arts, and theater.

Transportation

Van  transportation  is  provided  from some area  schools. In  some circumstances, school district or private transportation has been arranged by parents.

Great Facilities

MSCF's  twenty-one  beautiful  acres make a variety of indoor and outdoor activities available to your child. Out  campus  consists of  several playgrounds, athletic fields, volleyball and basketball courts, and shady, comfortable places to play.
The campus' Main  Building is the focal point of the school-age day care program. It houses the library, computer lab, gymnasium, recreation rooms, and arts and crafts center. When the weather becomes too cold to be outdoors, your child will have plenty of indoor activities available.

Afternoon Snack

A nutritious  snack is provided  shortly after your child's arrival. Your child will often participate in preparing and serving the snack.

Homework Help

Preparing  children  for  next  day  of  school  is  an important  part of our program. Conducted  by  certified  teachers, our  Homework Help component provides a daily time  for  your  child to do his school  assignments.  Homework  Help is provided to groups of children at similar learning levels.

Educational Extras

To  further  enhance learning, our  staff  encourages  your child to participate in fun, educational activities using computers and our library, and by participating in special projects.

Location

Our  campus is  conveniently located on  Monument Road,  just  off Belmont Avenue and  directly  across  from  the  old  site  of  the  Pennsylvania State Police Driver's Examination Course.
