Dear Harmony DC Families,

We appreciate all our families who participate in our aftercare program and understand how important this service is to our community. Our team has worked hard to accommodate as many students as possible; however, due to limited staff and space, we currently have a waitlist for aftercare.
Please note the following important reminders and updates:
Pickup Time: All students must be picked up no later than 5:45 p.m.

Building Closure: The school building will close promptly at 6:00 p.m.

Late Pickup Fees:
A $10 fee per child will be charged for pickups after 6:00 p.m.
This fee will double after 6:15 p.m.
Fees will be added to your account and must be paid by the following week’s deadline.

Repeated Late Pickups:
After two late pickups, continued participation in the aftercare program will result in dismissal.

Any pickup after 6:30 p.m. will result in immediate dismissal from the program.

Please remember that our aftercare staff cannot and will not stay after 6:00 p.m. We kindly ask for your cooperation and respect for their time, as they also have family and personal obligations after work hours.

We appreciate your understanding and partnership in keeping our program running smoothly and safely for all students.

It is very important that all students are up to date on their immunizations.

Students who do not have the required immunization records may not be allowed to enroll or attend school in the District of Columbia. Please do not wait until the last minute—make sure your child’s immunizations are current as soon as possible.

You can review the full list of Immunization Requirements here:

DC Health has also updated its online resource listing locations across the District where children can receive their vaccinations. To find a convenient location and learn more, visit: https://dchealth.dc.gov/immunization

Thank you for helping us keep all students healthy and safe.
