Snow Day Child Care
(click here for "OF RECORD: Emergency Closings")
Snow Day Child Care is available once again for children of full- and part-time faculty and staff of the University. It will be offered from December 6, 1999 through March 31, 2000. When the Philadelphia County Public Schools are closed due to inclement weather and the University is open, Snow Day Child Care will be provided from 8 a.m. through 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. The care will be offered at two local day care centers at 42nd and Spruce: The Penn Children's Center, which will provide care for children aged twelve weeks through five years of age and The Parent Infant Center, which will serve children aged six through twelve years.
The cost per day for Snow Day Child Care is based on the salary of the
parent and the age of the child, as follows:
| Salary: | < or = to $50K | > or = to $50K |
| School Aged: | $10 | $18 |
| Preschoolers: | $15 | $25 |
Enrollment is required in advance to use each year. An enrollment packet request form is available in the brochures being distributed through intramural mail.
