About the Extended Day Center

The Extended Day Center offers an after-school program for children from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. Bus service is available from Turtle Rock Elementary for students in grades PK-6 and from Vista Verde Elementary for students in grades K-6 (during the traditional school year). Bus passes are purchased through IUSD transportation. Extended Day participates in the Child Nutrition Program and provides a hot lunch (for PK and kindergarten children) and snack daily during the school year, as well as morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack during the summer. The center serves UCI students, staff, and faculty, and subsidized tuition is available to eligible student families through a grant from the State Department of Education.
