Thank you for your interest in the FTSD Early Morning Program (EMP) & Extended Day Program (EDP) for students attending Roebling and Riverfront Schools, sponsored by the FTSD Board of Education. Child care is available on all regular school days, most half-day sessions (except for the day prior to a major holiday) and all scheduled two hour delayed openings. EMP/EDP is not available when schools are closed due to a holiday or an emergency closing such as inclement weather. Our program regulations are strictly enforced to insure quality and ethical standards for each participant in the program. The program adheres to the FTSD Student Expectation Standards.
The goal of the FTSD EMP/EDP program is to provide a safe, enriching environment for school-age children (GRADES K-6) before and after school hours to meet the needs of our working parents/guardians. This program offers a variety of activities including indoor games & fun, outdoor play, homework help etc. in a relaxed, supervised atmosphere. At each location, the children are grouped by grades. Caregivers are assigned to work with each age group. We strive to give each child a variety of options and activities each day.
During this hybrid learning period students will be able to eat lunch (socially distanced) during the school day at either remote or EDP care (more detailed information to follow):
