Message to families:
The goal of Discovery Zone is to provide exceptional before and after care services to OFSD families who need child care for their child/children. Before and/or after school care is vital to many working families. The program is dedicated to efficiently filling available slots along with ensuring a safe program for students by maintaining an appropriate student-to-staff ratio. Families interested in Discovery Zone will need to complete the registration process online. Submitting a registration does not guarantee a slot is available. If available slots have been filled for the school year, families who have submitted a registration will be notified and placed on a Waitlist. Completing the registration process as soon as possible once registration opens (before summer break begins) is strongly encouraged.
Thank you for your support!
