Extended Care
Hours: 3:00 - 5:30PM
Extended Care is available for all JK-8 students enrolled at SJCS who need to be at school after classroom hours during the school year. Families do not need to sign up in advance for this program and may use it as needed. Any students on campus after 3:15pm will be signed in to Extended Care, and families will be charged for the time used.
For more details, please refer to the Parent/Student Handbook.
Payment for Extended Care is processed through FACTS. Families will be invoiced at the beginning of each month for time used during the previous month. More information about Extended Care fees can be found in our financial policies.
For questions about payments, please contact the SJCS Business Manager.
After-School Clubs
After-school clubs provide SJCS students with opportunities to explore new topics or to dive deeper into a topic or skill from our standard curriculum. Most clubs are taught by members of the SJCS community and typically meet once a week for eight weeks. Previous club offerings include: Art, Spanish, Dance, Chess, Science, and Minecraft (technology).
Clubs are typically offered in the Fall and Spring. There is an additional cost for after-school clubs and registration is required. Availability is often limited - complete the registration early to get your spot!
Interested in offering a club at SJCS?
We love to use the talents and gifts within our community. If you are a current parent or the owner of a club program, please contact the Director of Enrichment Programs to submit an idea for an after-school club.

Professional Biography
Working with kids and having an impact in their lives has always been a passion of mine. I started my professional career working in pediatrics for 7 years as a medical assistant and enjoyed working with and caring for kids. I then went back to school to be a Preschool Teacher while my son was growing up. After 5 years in preschool, I intended to continue my career in nursing, but God opened a door for me instead in Christian Education. As the Family Relations Director, I loved that I could incorporate my faith and work with kids through school activities and teaching the Leadership class. I am excited to bring my passion and experience to SJCS and continue to further my education in Child Psychology to support my work with kids for God’s glory.
Personal Biography
I’ve lived in San Jose all my life. I met my husband at church and we got married in 2017. We are a blended family with three kids and a one-eyed pug named Lincoln. We are very active at our church and we help lead the Mexico missions and the Connect ministry there. Through these ministries, our family gets to do what we believe is the most important: Love God and Love People. I am a big Warriors fan and I love basketball. I also love to cook, dance, and go to the beach.
Christian Philosophy of Education
I believe that the greatest foundation a child can have is a Christian foundation, and I love being part of helping kids build that foundation. It is important to me to be able to pray for students and speak to their spirit within a community that cares about every child’s well-being. I believe it is important to teach students with Christ at the center, because without that piece students miss out on something that can make them whole. A Christ-centered education is a complete one and I am blessed to be a part of a school that prioritizes this in every way.
