Are counselors vetted?
Yes. All counselors who will work with students will have a background check before they are allowed to participate. Youth volunteers must have a reference in order to be accepted.
What is security like?
WTC has live, active security cameras in every room & hallway that will be occupied by students. Exterior doors remain locked throughout the day while students are on campus. We also have trained security on campus throughout the day.
What will students do in the program?
The program's first focus is to make sure students have their homework done. Students will also have access to computers, fun, and develop great relationships with each other and counselors!
Will you pick-up from private schools?
No. We only service Nash and Edgecombe public schools. However, drop-in care is available for private school families to attend. This means students can be dropped off at the church to participate in the afterschool program.
Is there a deadline for registration?
The Afterschool Program has open enrollment throughout the school year. This means you can start at any time between August-May! Slots fill up fast so make sure you register and pay for your student as soon as possible!
What special care arrangements do you offer?
We provide early pick-up for any immediate threat or weather related issues based on the discretion of NCPS central office instructions. We operate off the NCPS school calendar which means, when NCPS schools are open or closing early, we will continue to provide services however, it is based on program hours. For example, if NCPS decides to close 2 hour early due to inclement weather, we will pick students up and provide the care until we close at 6:00pm. Please note: we also abide by the instructions of our Senior Pastor once we have arrived to The Impact Center and if we are informed to close the building, parents are instructed to pick-up based on the time provided.
Is the full cost of tuition required during Christmas and Easter since the students are out school for so many days?
YES! Full tuition is required every month. This is due to the fact that we do not charge an additional fee for emergency or early
release hours that will require care
What is the pick-up policy?
We close at 6:00 pm. Students left after 6:00 pm and staff hasn't been notified in advance, will be charged $1.00 per minute and will be added to their tuition for the upcoming month.
