Enrollment
Hours and Days of Operation
XLT is available Monday through Friday when school is in session. The hours of operation will be from 6:30am to the beginning of schools and after school until 6:30pm.
- XLT will not be in session on snow days, mornings of late start days due to weather, or afternoons of early release days.
- On Days where the district calls a 2 hour late start due to inclement weather, XLT will not be open for the AM Session. Per the District Policy, “In an attempt to provide a service to those who wish to drop off their child(ren) at school on their way to work in the morning of a late-start day, the building principal will have someone near the front door to welcome your child(ren) to school beginning at 8:30am. (Grades K-4).”
- For days of an early release due to weather, the call will go out as soon as the decision has been made so that you have as much time to plan as possible. You will need to make arrangements to pick up your child as soon as possible. We will not operate PM XLT when an early release has been called.
- XLT will operate normally on afternoons of scheduled half days of school. Students who are already enrolled in afternoon XLT can attend their normal schedule. Any additional students will need to contact the XLT office regarding afternoon care on these days.
- XLT offers a School Day Off program for teacher workdays and certain holidays. Spring break and In-Between Camps will also be offered. These days are in addition to your monthly tuition fee.
- XLT SDO’s, summer school and summer camp programs are separate from the regular school year. The entire summer session (4 weeks) is due at the time of enrollment. Summer Camp (Camp Eagle) will have separate registration and tuition.
Change of Schedule or Withdrawal from Program
If schedule changes are needed for your child, please complete a Schedule Change Request online at http://www.nixaxlt.net.
Schedule changes made prior to the 25th of each month will be applied to the end of the current month. Changes made after the 25th of the month will not be applied until the end of the following month. This is due to the tuition schedule being broken down over a year of payments spread out evenly across the school year.
Tuition will not be prorated, appropriate notice must be given to stop tuition from being charged. Tuition will continue to be charged unless we have received a schedule change form. All balances must be paid in full in order to return.
If your family should have an unusual or emergency type financial problem that may affect the prompt payment of tuition, please call 417-724-6190 to discuss the situation with the XLT Office Manager.
If your child will not be attending the program as scheduled, please notify your child’s XLT site in advance. Cooperation in this matter is for the safety of your child.
If your child does not attend for one month and Eagle Care has not been notified, your child will be dropped from the program. All balances must be paid in full in order to return.
Written notice should include the following information:
- Child’s full name
- Parent’s full name
- Current date
- Effective Date of Change
- School child attends
- Current Eagle Care schedule
- Requested Eagle Care schedule or withdraw
- Parent signature
Tuition and Attendance Schedules
AM & PM: $390 / month
PM: $290 / month
AM: $195 / month
Monday Late Start: $40 /month
Our tuition schedule is based on a daily tuition fee multiplied by the number of student days for the year. There are 171 student days for the 2024-2025 school year. It is then divided by the number of monthly billing cycles. Your payment amount will remain constant for the year; however you are not being charged for days that school is not in session. Therefore, we do not prorate. (i.e. August, Thanksgiving, Christmas Break, Spring Break, and May, mid-month cycle changes, start dates or end dates of care.)
Please see the break down below:
Full Time AM & PM: $20.55 daily x 171 student days = $3,514.05 for the school year / 9 billing cycles
= $390 monthly.
Full Time PM: $15.30 daily x 171 student days = $2616.30 for the school year / 9 billing cycles
= $290 monthly.
Full Time AM: $10.30 daily x 171 student days = $1761.30 for the school year / 9 billing cycles
= $195 monthly.
Monday Late Start: $11.65 daily x 171 student days = $361.15 for the school year / 9 billing cycles
= $40 monthly.
Financial Assistance
XLT does offer a ten percent (10%) discount for each additional child per family.
XLT provides tuition assistance if your child qualifies for free or reduced lunches. If your family receives free or reduced lunch services through the school please contact the XLT office manager at 417-724-6190. XLT offers a twenty five percent (25%) discount for reduced lunch services, and a fifty percent (50%) discount for free lunch services.
XLT provides tuition assistance to families with children who are foster/adopted. XLT provides a fifty percent (50%) tuition discount to children who are foster/adopted through the state of Missouri. Please contact the XLT office to provide your official state documentation to qualify for this service.
Tuition discounts cannot be combined. Therefore, if you qualify for more than one discount, the higher of the two will be applied to your tuition. For example, if you have two students who qualify for free lunch benefits, you will have the 50% off discount applied to your account in place of the 10% sibling discount.
Tuition discounts are not applied to Monday Late Start, SDOs, camps, or summer school.

Check In and Out Procedures
Check in / Out Procedure
It is mandatory that you, or someone approved on your child’s enrollment form, bring your child in the building and sign your child in and or out each day. This is a State Licensing requirement, plus it provides us a chance to share with you any information you may need regarding your child or the program.
Important information such as School Day Off, program changes, or policy changes are made available at this time through postings on the website, Facebook, newsletters, email, or flyers.
Your child may not be dropped off before 6:30am per State Licensing. A child can only be released to the persons listed on the enrollment form. People who do not regularly pick up your child will be asked to show a picture ID.
Only individuals sixteen (16) years of age or older may pick up a child from the program. If your child is in tutoring or any other situation that requires them to leave XLT and return, you will need to complete the “Permission to Leave” XLT form. In the event your child will be absent from XLT or when you are notifying the office or building site of an alternate person picking up your child, you will be asked to provide the last four digits of your social security number. This is to ensure the safety of your child. Under no circumstances will XLT allow a child to walk home without an authorized individual.
Children not picked up by 6:30pm
Children must be picked up by 6:30pm. The school’s clock will serve as the official clock. If a child is not picked up by 6:30pm, you will be charged a late pick up fee of five dollars ($5.00) per child for the first 1-10 minutes, and one dollar ($1.00) per child per minute thereafter. Payment must be made to the XLT office within five working days to the infraction on your account will be suspended.
There will be no exceptions or warnings. If you are late for any reason (Flat tire, work-related issues, miscommunication between parents, etc), a charge will be issues. A “No exceptions” policy makes it easier for us to apply the late policy to everyone consistently and fairly. We do not want any parent to receive special treatment or favors whereas other parents may not.
A form indicating the child’s name and at what time the parent arrived has been developed with the policy clearly stated. The parent and site supervisor or assistant will sign this form for documentation of the infraction.
After all attempts to contact parents and emergency contacts have failed, a child who is not picked up by 7:00pm will be considered abandoned. The Nixa Police Department and Child Protective Services will then be called.
Custody Issues
In cases where the child is the subject of a court order (e.g., custody order, family plan restraining order, or protection from abuse order), XLT must be provided with a certified copy of the most recent order and all amendments. The orders of the court will be strictly followed unless the custodial parent(s) request a more liberal variation of the order in writing and it is approved by the court.
In the absence of a court order, XLT cannot limit the access of one parent (or guardian) by the request of the other parent (or guardian), regardless of the reason.
Parent/Guardian Visitation
Parents/guardians are always welcome to visit the program at any time. We would love to have you come and share your job skills or hobbies with us. Please check with your site supervisor for a date if you wish to share your skills/hobbies with XLT.
We encourage communication with our XLT staff at all times. However, if there is a situation you feel must be discussed with the site supervisor, please make an appointment with them. This allows them to specifically address your situation and not take away learning time from the other children.
Reporting Child Abuse
Under the Child Protective Services Act, mandated reporters are required to report any suspicion of abuse or neglect to the appropriate authorities. The staff of XLT is considered mandated reporters by law. The staff of XLT is not required to discuss their suspicions with parents prior to reporting the matter to the appropriate authorities, nor are they required to investigate the cause of any suspicious marks, behavior or condition prior to making a report. Under the Act, mandated reporters can be held criminally responsible if they fail to report suspected abuse or neglect. We at XLT take the responsibility very seriously and will make all warranted reports to the appropriate authorities. The child Protective Services Act is designed to protect the welfare and best interests of all children.
As mandated reporters, the staff of XLT cannot be held liable for reports made to Child Protective Services that are determined to be unfounded, provided the report was made in good faith.
Confidentiality
Within XLT, confidential and sensitive information will only be shared with XLT staff on a “need to know” basis in order to most appropriately and safely care for your child. Confidential and sensitive information about staff, other parents, and /or children will not be shared with parents, as XLT strives to protect everyone’s right of privacy. Confidential information includes, but is not limited to, names, addresses, phone numbers, disability information, behavior, and health information.
Outside of XLT, confidential and sensitive information about a child will only be shared when the parent of the child has given express written consent, except where otherwise provided for by law. Staff may consult with school administrators and teachers at your child’s school regarding your child’s development or behavior. Staff may also discuss your child if making a report of child abuse as a mandated reporter (see section entitled Reporting of Child Abuse) or if requested by the Department of Health and Senior Services section for Child Care Regulations, Social Services or local authorities for an investigation or inspection. You may observe children at XLT who are disabled or who exhibit behavior that may appear inappropriate. You may be curious or concerned about the other child. Our confidential policy protects every child’s privacy. Staff are strictly prohibited from discussing anything about another child with you.
Snacks
XLT follows Missouri Child Care Licensing requirements in the design of our after school snacks. Menus are posted for review by parents. XLT requests that parents send healthy lunches and snacks on School Days Off (half and full day) unless otherwise notifies. We will do our best to provide adequate storage for lunches.
XLT, SDO’s and Camps are peanut and tree nut free. Please avoid bringing foods that contain the following:
- Nut butters (almond, cashew, peanut, hazelnut)
- Nut pastes (nougat)
- Nut oils
- Peanut flour
- Nut extracts
A treat may be sent for a special occasion if you wish; however, we would prefer that you send health snacks. All snacks provided must be prepackaged. Please see the site supervisor for ideas.

Ill Children
Children who are suspected of having a contagious illness shall not be accepted into care. If a child becomes ill while in the school age childcare program, parents/guardians are requested to come for their child at once. The ill child having a fever of 100 degrees Fahrenheit or above, or visible symptoms of an illness such as a rash, vomiting, diarrhea, pink eye, or head lice, shall be isolated from the other children and will be monitored by a staff person until the parent/guardian arrives. Your child must be symptom free for at least 24 hours without the aid of Tylenol/Motrin before returning to XLT.
If a parent fails to pick up a sick child in a timely manner, the child will be considered abandoned. The Nixa Police Department and Child Protective services will then be called.
All sick policies are subject to change to reflect/coincide with Nixa Public Schools District Policy.
Medication
A child may not receive medication of any type from the XLT program unless medication is absolutely necessary. If this is the case, we require parents/guardians to please follow these procedures:
- Complete a School Age Child Care medication Form, advising the site director of the amount and frequency of dosage.
- The medication must be in the original container with the pharmacist’s label marked with the prescription name, date, child’s name, and physician’s name.
- At the end of the medication period, parents should take home any unused medication.
- XLT can only accept instructions concerning medication directly from the child’s parent/guardian. We cannot access medication that is provided to the school Nurse’s office, you will need to provide separate medications for XLT.
What we can and cannot do:
- We can administer some oral medications, including over the counter medications. We must have the Permission to Administer Medication Form signed by the doctor and/or parent to administer any medication.
- All medications must be in their original containers and labeled with the child’s full name.

Special Care Plans
XLT is dedicated to serving all children and families needing our services, provided that they can effectively operate within the regular staff to child ratio of 1:16. If your child has special needs as defined by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, you may be asked to complete a Special Needs Plan (19 CSR 30-62. 132). This form (included at the end of this parent handbook) will allow us to better serve the needs of your child. Parents may wish to provide their child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) to the XLT staff. XLT will try to accommodate the children’s needs as best as we can.
If your child has an IEP for behavior or non-academic special needs, XLT is required by State Licensing that you have a qualified professional complete a Special Needs Form for your child. This form will enable XLLT to create a more successful environment for your child. It is required that we have this on file, as well as ac copy of the IEP before he/she begins attending the program.
As this is a licensing requirement, your child may not attend XLT until the IEP, Special Needs Form, and/or any Medication forms are returned to the XLT site supervisor.
Unfortunately, there are times our programs cannot meet the needs of all children. In this case, we will be glad to offer suggestions or resources for appropriate care through other programs. You may call Child Care Resource and Referral at 1-800-200-9017. If you feel that your child needs one-on-one assistance per a special need or disability when attending XLT, please contact Nixa Public Schools Special Services Department at 417-724-6260.
Special Needs/Allergies
Accidents
Throughout the course of the day, children will get occasional bumps, cuts, and scrapes associated with active play. Every effort will be made to document and notify parents of these minor accidents. We will cleanse cuts and scrapes with warm water and apply a Band-Aid. We cannot apply a salve, any ointments, or creams. Nixa Public Schools’ XLT is not responsible for any personal injury incurred while the children are at the childcare program. Parents are encouraged to enroll in insurance to cover accidents.

- Sexual harassment – complaints shall be forwarded to the Program Coordinator for investigation. A substantiated charge against a student shall subject that student to disciplinary action including suspension or expulsion.
