Harding Academy | Before & After Care

Before & After Care

Harding Academy's commitment to support our families continues into the after school programs that are offered throughout the year.

Care is available beginning at 7:00 AM every morning and lasts until 5:55 PM (lower school) and 6:00 pm (middle school) every evening.

For students of all ages, the wide variety of opportunities are designed to enhance and build upon their educational experience.

Whether students are arriving early in the morning or staying until the end of the Pursuit or Study Hall day, they will experience a warm and welcoming atmosphere, safe and caring adults, and opportunities to connect with their peers.

Before Care
