Lumberton Extended Day Care

  • 2024/25 EDC Registration is open at this time!

    Now in its 34th year, the Lumberton Extended Day Care Program (EDC) provides safe, affordable and convenient day care for Lumberton and Edgewater Park resident children in 3-year old Pre-K through grade 8. Mrs. Diane Solan serves as the EDC Coordinator and Mrs. Jennifer Grimm is the EDC Secretary – contact information can be found at the bottom of this page.

    While at Extended Day Care, children are offered a safe, fun, and relaxed atmosphere with opportunities for many different activities, including games, crafts, athletics and homework. All activities are conducted and monitored by a professional and caring staff. Extended Day Care is funded through parental tuition. Tuition payments are made one full week in advance on Tuesdays. Late registration fees apply when the Tuesday prior deadline is missed ($5 per scheduled day late fee.) Parents are required to register their children each year.  EDC does not accept subsidized tuition; however, discounted tuition rates are offered to those families that are eligible for free/reduced school meals, as determined and authorized by the school district each year.  Please contact the EDC office for a Reduced EDC Tuition Application/Authorization Form.
