Program Overview
Norwood’s Extended Day services are a branch within Norwood Public Schools offering before and after school childcare to youth in Kindergarten through Fifth Grade. Before-school services are held at Norwood’s five elementary schools: Balch, Callahan, Cleveland, Oldham, and Prescott. The after-school services are provided at Norwood’s six elementary schools: Balch, Callahan, Cleveland, Oldham, Prescott, and Willett. In addition, we offer vacation care coverage for February and April as well as summer programming.

Extended Day Mission
Norwood Extended Day welcomes parents, family members and caretakers to join us in our efforts to facilitate a warm, culturally responsive environment that recognizes the individual contributions of every child in our program. It is the mission of Norwood Extended Day to provide a space for students to learn and grow. Norwood Extended Day facilitates this through the commitment of its teachers and administrators for K-5th by coaching youth and providing ample opportunities for social engagement and experiential enrichment.
