Holy Name School Extended Care

Recognizing the fact that the parents are the primary educators of their children, Holy Name School is in operation for the
purpose of cooperating with the parents in the spiritual and emotional development of their children as a basis for their intellectual,
physical, social and cultural growth. Realizing the importance of instilling spiritual values, religious instruction is not only
included in the curriculum, but it is the aim of the school to create an atmosphere permeated with Christian love among the students
and teachers. Since our goal is not merely to teach about Christ but to actually teach Christ, we are mindful of the necessity of
revealing the human Christ to the students by our relationship with them.
A summary of our goals thus includes the following:
To teach the Christian message as a basis for a way of life;
To create an environment in which students develop a positive perception of themselves;
To aid students in accepting responsibility for their attitudes, behavior and learning;
To promote active participation in service of God, church, country;
To promote standards of Christian conduct;
To provide dynamic and meaningful learning experiences;
To develop respect for the dignity of every person.
Our program offers after-school child care for students in Pre-K through Grade 8. We provide areas for students to complete homework, enjoy a healthy snack, and play with their other students. Future plans include the incorporation of exercises and planned activities. We are proud to report that our 2009 annual state evaluation was violation free indicating that our Extended Care program meets all required health and safety regulations.
