Complimentary Childcare
During arrival and dismissal times, childcare is complimentary to families with multiple children across levels according to the following guidelines.
Before-School
Childcare is complimentary for siblings at a younger level starting from the oldest sibling’s arrival time until the starting time for the younger child if the older sibling is at school that day. For example, a family with a child in Upper Elementary/Middle School and a child in Pre-elementary may drop off the older child at Upper Elementary/Middle School arrival time of 8:10 am and then sign the younger one into childcare. The time between sign-in for the younger sibling and 8:45 am is complimentary.
After-School Childcare
Childcare is complimentary for siblings at a younger level starting from their dismissal time until the dismissal time of the oldest sibling when the oldest sibling is at school. For example, a family with a Pre-elementary student and a Middle School student receive complimentary childcare for the Pre-elementary child from their dismissal to the Middle School’s dismissal time.
Electronic Clock in/Out
An electronic clock is used to check students in/out as well as for billing. Parents/Guardians or an authorized person use their unique PIN provided by the school to complete the health screening and to check their child in/out of childcare. Parents/Guardians may view their PIN at any time on the Family Information Form available via the inResonance Family Access Module link on the Parent Portal. If an authorized person other than the parent needs to pick up a child, Eton School can provide a unique PIN for the person as long as they are listed in the student’s record for authorized pickup.
