Express Program Information

Day Camp/Express Childcare Update: With the plan for students to transition to in-person instruction, Day Camp will be closing at all elementary sites by mid-February. Before and after school licensed childcare will resume at select locations in February. Express sites will begin to open locations over a three-week period.

Enrollment will be limited to 20 students per site and transportation will not be provided between school locations. Due to the limited capacity, 5-day-per-week schedules will be given priority. Additional enrollment capacity and/or locations will be evaluated throughout the spring based on family interest.

Express registration will be available on Tuesday, January 19. Please watch this site for more information on sites and start dates.

Express provides quality, convenient childcare for Spokane Public Schools students who are registered in school, in a safe, nurturing and enriching environment. Activities are planned to foster growth and development of the whole child.

Due to the high volume of registrations, a completed registration may not guarantee entry. If, after registration is received, the billing staff notices that your requested site and program are already full or not offered, we will notify you as soon as we are aware.

We must have your complete registration -- this includes COVID Consent, Online Signature and DSHS authorization, if applicable -- a minimum of two full business days before your first day of child care to ensure proper student safety, staffing ratios and licensing requirements.

Meals

The USDA extended the Summer Food Service Program through the 2020-21 school year, for ALL children 18 and under. As such, breakfast and lunch will be provided during this time for our program.

The Express Child Care program will provide an afternoon snack for Express children.
