Before Care 2025-26 School Year

At Bend International School, we provide a before school care option for families to support work schedules. The program runs from 7:30 am to 8:40 am each day, after which our grounds are open for all students until 8:55 am when they go into class. Before care begins on September 4th.

To better meet the needs of our students who access before care, we have made the following changes for the 2025-26 school year.
  • K – 4 students – Arrive at the drop off circle and enter the Big Room. Rotating activities will be provided, alongside PBS Sesame Street and access to the playground.
  • 5 – 8 students – Arrive at the drop off circle and enter the Gym. Rotating activities will be provided, including gym-based activities.
The cost for this program is $300 per year, which covers flexible use of the program by day and time. Cost for an additional sibling(s) is $200 per year. Payment plans are available.

Scholarships are available for all eligible students based on eligibility for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). Additional requests will be reviewed based on need.
