Lightning Bolt BASE Program

BFA’s Lightning Bolt Before/After School Enrichment (BASE) program serves BFA children and parents by providing a safe, enriching, convenient, and affordable school-age childcare program. Our on-site program features indoor and outdoor activities that keep your child engaged and safe while giving them plenty of time to work on their homework. A perfect fit for working parents or parents who need additional time before or after school, BFA’s Lightning Bolt BASE program provides safe alternative for school-aged childcare.

While BASE is a drop-in program, your child(ren) must be registered in advance to use the program every school year. If you think that you may need BASE services at any time during the school year, please register now. For the link to register please email BASE at base@bfacademy.org and we will send you the link.

The Lightning Bolt BASE program is staffed by BFA employees who have all been screened and undergone strict background checks through the State of Colorado. In addition, our program utilizes scanning technology for child check-in/check-out procedures to guarantee a safe and secure environment.

All BASE participants (both new and returning students) MUST complete an Enrollment Form in order to participate in the program. The Enrollment Form and payment (please see below for payment and cost details) must be completed prior to first day of attendance.

If you have any questions, please contact Leigh Savoy, BASE Director, via her email or the Base Program email address. If you need to register your child(ren), please email BASE at base@bfacademy.org for the registration link.

Pricing
Priced at only $7 per session, the BFA Lightning Bolt BASE program is more affordable than most childcare options in the marketplace.  There is a $25.00 registration fee per family that will be assessed once per year to cover general administrative costs.
