Rochester Community Schools

Welcome to the Rochester Community Schools School-Age Care (SAC) program. Our programs are designed to enrich and compliment your child’s school experience. SAC is located in each elementary school building. These programs are designed for families who require child care during the hours before and/or after school. Any student enrolled in grades TK-5 in the Rochester Community School District is eligible to register for SAC.

All SAC programs are licensed by the State of Michigan Department of Human Services. Our programs follow all licensing rules and regulations including a maximum staff to child ratio of 1:18 and square footage requirements.

This HANDBOOK is provided to acquaint you with our SAC programs and our policies. Should you have any questions or concerns, please speak with your child’s caregiver or call Children’s Programs at the Administration Building at 248-726-3023.

Note: The Children’s Programs SAC office is also responsible for 1/2 Day Specials during Professional Development days for teachers, and Summer Day-Camp provided daily during the summer months. Information on these two programs is located at the end of this handbook.
