Afterschool Announcement!

Friendly House would like to thank all of our families for your patience. We have made the decision that we will no longer be registering the Afterschool Program using our online platform. Due to the many issues we have had and continue to have, we have elected to go back to paper forms.

Current ENROLLED families may pick up forms later today at child pick up. Returning and new families may pick up paper forms beginning on Wednesday 8/5/2026. Registration also begins tomorrow on a first come first serve basis.

To be considered enrolled you must: have a form for each child fully complete and verified by staff and complete the $50 payment. Space will not be held. Enrollment will not be accepted without completed forms or payment.

Payment may be made with cash, check or credit card via Square (credit card fees apply).

We will enroll 132 children and then begin a WAIT LIST based upon a first come first serve basis.
