I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.

After School Care
Registration Form

First Baptist Church After School Care (ASC) provides care for children in kindergarten through sixth grade. Our goal is to provide a safe, responsible, loving and Christian atmosphere for children through planned activities, monitored homework time, small group activities and outside play. There are planned activities and games in which the children participate; however, each child is also free to play with friends in an unstructured environment. We are open to children without regard to race, color, religion or national origin.

Our program started in 1991. Many of our children start with us in kindergarten and continue through sixth grade. ASC begins when children are picked up from school and continues until 6:00 p.m. We follow the Johnston County public school calendar. We are open all day from 7:30 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. when school is out for teacher workdays, Christmas holidays, etc. Our buses pick up from the following schools:

    • Smithfield Elementary
    • Wilson Mill's Elementary
    • Four Oaks Elementary
    • West Smithfield Elementary
    • Micro-Pine Level Elementary
    • Four Oaks Middle
    • Smithfield Middle

When the children arrive at ASC, they are separated into different rooms by age levels. A snack is provided and they are encouraged to go to the homework area if needed or they can participate in activities, crafts or just "free time."

Our fee schedule is as follows:

    • $30 a week for one child and $23 for each additional child in the family
    • $8 extra per week per child for all-day care
    • $35 registration fee for the first child and $20 for each additional child

Summer Adventures

Our Summer Adventures Program (SA) begins Monday, June 11th and continues until school resumes in August. We are open from 7:30 a.m. until 6:00 p.m., Monday-Friday. A child must have completed kindergarten to be eligible for SA. We provide a morning and afternoon snack but children need to bring lunch from home. We have an active schedule which includes weekly fieldtrips, swimming, library visits, music, arts and crafts and much more. Registration for SA and ASC begins in mid March of each year.
