Welcome to Heathwood Plus

In order to meet the growing needs of the Heathwood family, Heathwood Plus was
formed in 1981. Our purpose continues to be the care and development of your child by
providing a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment. We strive to provide an age
appropriate program with varied activities while building self-esteem through positive
interactions.
Extracurricular activities are an integral part of any child’s education. We provide
students with a rich educational environment that meets the students’ needs and
stimulates development intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally. Positive
interactions with adults and peers, coupled with structured activities, develop good self
esteem for each child and complement Heathwood’s academic program. Before- and
after-school times become learning times also. Children enrolled in these programs
receive all the benefits of a Heathwood education, plus a great deal more.

• Individual attention
  
• A high degree of supervision
  
• A creative, nurturing atmosphere
  
• Opportunities for self-expression
  
• Organized physical activities
  
• Free time for "just plain fun"
  

These are the hallmarks of the Heathwood Plus series of programs. The Heathwood Plus office phone number is (803) 231-7710 if you have any questions.

Early Morning (7:30 – 8:00 a.m.)

All children on campus must be enrolled in a supervised program. Children who
arrive at school before 8:00 a.m. must report to Early Morning Express. This service is
free of charge and coordinated through the Lower School Office.

Afternoon Express (until 6:00 p.m.)

The Extended Day Program, Afternoon Express, begins at the end of the academic day
and is open until 6:00 p.m. It provides a time for children to relax and play games and an
opportunity to do homework. For children in nursery school through transitional
kindergarten, the daily schedule includes a snack and a supervised indoor/outdoor playtime.
It also includes a variety of indoor activities such as arts and crafts, cooking, reading, physical
activities. Children in grades one through eight participate in indoor/outdoor play and a
choice of age-appropriate indoor activities. In addition, their schedule includes a supervised
homework time.

Fees

Students may enroll on a drop-in basis or on regular weekly schedule. Fees will be billed
monthly according to the days registered. Once a place is reserved for a child, there will
be no refunds for partial hours or absences. (To change your schedule, please give two
weeks written notice.) A late fee will be charged for pick up after 6:00 p.m. A $30 fee will
be charged at the beginning of each 15 minute interval. (Please see complete fee information

Full care is available on many school holidays for an additional fee. Afternoon Express
will be available on Conference Days, Faculty Workdays, and Grandparents’ Day. It is
