Fort Sill School Age Center is a nationally accredited program with Council on Accreditation (COA) and maintains certification through the Department of Defense (DoD). Personnel are highly trained and well qualified to care for school age children. The program is designed for children in first through fifth grade.
School Age Center staff plans a variety of activities, which include arts and crafts, sewing, cooking, bowling, computer technology, table games, billiard games, air hockey, and outdoor play. SAC also offers homework assistance during the school year Monday through Friday from 5:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. In addition, the SAC computer lab operates from 6:30 to 9:00 a.m. before school and 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. after school, Monday through Friday during the school year; and 5:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. during camps and school vacation days. Fort Sill’s home school children and the School Age program’s family times are scheduled with the program accordingly.
School Age Center provides a before and after school program during the school year and a Summer Day Camp for the 12 weeks of summer. Childcare fees, established by the DoD fee policy, are based on Total Family Income (TFI). Hours of operation are from 5:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
