Before/After School Extension (BASE) is located in each elementary school and at Wayland Middle School, providing before and after school programming for children in kindergarten through eighth grade. (Before school is offered for K-5 only).  At the elementary schools, a 1-4 after-school program is offered at Happy Hollow and Claypit Hill and a Kindergarten BASE program is offered at Loker School. Grade 5 pupils are transported to Wayland Middle School for a Grades 5-8 program.

Children enrolled in BASE have use of school gymnasiums, libraries, cafeterias, computers or computer labs, assigned classrooms, playgrounds, and playing fields.  Daily activities vary and are always fine-tuned to reflect children's changing interests and abilities.  Flexible schedules are available, offering 2, 3, 4 or 5 afternoons until 4:30 or 6:00.  Kindergartners may enroll in a Kindergarten BASE program, which begins upon the completion of morning Kindergarten. More detailed information can be obtained by calling the WSCP office at 508-655-6403.

Please note that Before-School is the only program that offers a drop-in option. After-School programs are enrolled on a contractual basis, and there is a two-day minimum.

Happy Hollow BASE students celebrated the UN-sponsored International Day of Peace this fall by participating in the Pinwheels for Peace event. They joined people throughout the world in spreading messages of peace by making pinwheels bearing messages of peace.

During February and April vacation weeks, Wayland School Community Programs offers programs held at Loker School for children in Kindergarten through Grade Five. Each day offers a mix of free play and scheduled activity periods for cooking, science, arts and crafts, active games, music, and more. Children also enjoy special events daily. A typical week might include field trips for mini-golf, bowling, or roller skating and/or make-your-own-pottery or a drama workshop. A trip to the local Pizzeria Uno for a tour and pizza making is always a highlight as is the chance to dine together in a restaurant.

Outdoor time is an important part of each day in the BASE program. Children enjoy the play structures, play football, basketball, soccer, four-square, or baseball. It's also a great time to interact with BASE staff and each other.
