Fees

Regularly Scheduled Fees & Hours

ASP fees are billed the first week of the month and payable upon receipt.

Full-day: 1:30 p.m.* – 5:30 p.m.  *(1:00 on Fridays)

Half-day:  1:30 p.m.* – 3:00 p.m. or 3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. *(1:00 on Fridays)

Fees are charged on a monthly basis. Any month that is not a full school month (August, November, December, January, March, and June) is prorated and charges are made by the week.

Fees are set on an annual basis by the ASP Director(s), in consultation with the Chief Business Officer and/or the Director of Education.

After two months of unpaid bills, your child may no longer attend ASP until the account is paid in full. If you think your child qualifies for a scholarship, you need to complete the National School Lunch Program form. Any charges incurred before qualifying for a scholarship are still due and payable. 

Drop-ins and Fees

Children may attend ASP on a drop-in basis.  Drop-ins require a 24-hour notice and are confirmed once you remit payment via the app.

How to drop in:

• Text your child’s name, the date you need care, and indicate if it will be a half day or full day of care to the ASP cell phone (805) 729-2152. 
• Your drop-in is confirmed once you remit payment on the app (we will add it to your bill).
• The Drop-In rate: $50 half day ( 1:00-3:00 0r 3:00-5:30), $100 full day care (1-5:30)
• Drop-in services are meant for emergency needs, and are priced accordingly at triple the average daily rate,  to discourage regular use of drop-ins and protect SBCS resource allocation.  We prefer families to sign up for a regular schedule so we may plan and staff appropriately.

Morning Care Program

Morning care fees are due and payable daily at $5 per day (7:15 a.m. – 8:15 a.m.)

Note: If you sign up for morning care while creating your schedule, the additional cost is not reflected in the regular ASP fee schedule and will be added to the invoice upon billing.

Scholarships

We are able to provide scholarships to any student who has a financial need. Please indicate on the online application that your family needs a scholarship for childcare and we will get the form to you.

In-service days and conference weeks

SBCS in-service days

There are fees charged for in-service days. See fee schedule below.  Scholarships do apply to in-service days.

• October 20th
• April 6th
• May 18th 

In-service child care fees:

• My child is regularly scheduled to attend ASP and I need a half day of care – $0
• My child is regularly scheduled to attend ASP and I need a full day of care – $40
• My child is not regularly scheduled and I need a half day of care – $40
• My child is not regularly scheduled and I need a full day of care – $60

SBCS conference weeks:

• Any child who has a regular monthly schedule established may attend ASP during conference week(s) for no additional charge.
• Any child who does not have a regularly monthly schedule will pay drop-in rates for any day they attend ASP.
• Anyone who doesn’t have a drop-in reservation or  regularly scheduled attendance in ASP during conference week will be sent to the office to wait for pickup.

For example, if you sign up for Monday and Wednesday for the month of November, your child can attend the full day on Monday and Wednesday during conference week for no additional charge. If your child needs care on Tuesday of conference week, you will be charged the drop-in rate for Tuesday.

Schedule Changes

ASP schedules are set by the month. If you would like to change your schedule you may do so by the 25th of the current month. Your schedule change will go into effect the following month. Change your schedule by submitting the online enrollment form again on the website   AND emailing tburson@sbunified.org.

Schedule changes will not go into effect until confirmed by a SB Charter ASP representative.

Absent/Sick Days:

There are no makeup days or refunds for absent or sick days.

Billing

Tracy Burson is the SBCS Chief Business Officer and handles all billing and payments. If you have any question/issues regarding billing please contact her via email at tburson@sbunified.org 805-967-6522 x1804

Parent Square Information

We will post to Parent Square once a month with ASP information. If you use our services please read the post in its entirety. We post once a month with all the information. We understand  that families have a lot to keep track of and we are mindful not to bombard you with messages.

You will be able to find the posts by searching “ASP” and the month info you are looking for. Example “ASP January”
