Our before and after school program is called extended care. Christ Lutheran School recognizes the busyness of parent schedules and strives to provide a safe place for students to be supervised from 7:00 – 7:50 am and from 3:10–6:00 pm when parents need flexibility in dropping off and picking up their children.
Extended Care is an additional charge of $6.00 per hour, billed monthly.
This program is available to all Christ Lutheran School enrolled students. Students may attend any days in which school is in session.
Our School Office is happy to answer any further questions you have regarding our Extended Care program, and we invite you to schedule a visit so you can view our program for yourself.
In December of 2025, the State of New Mexico approved Universal Childcare. We are licensed and able to accept “wrap-around care” contracts for before and after care. Click here to learn more and apply.
