(Required to finalize setup)
*Note: Saving a card in RecDesk does not automatically start payments. You must complete the form in Step 2 to finalize setup.
- Tell a Friend: Encourage a new family to enroll in the After School Program.
- They Register: The new family completes their registration online normally.
- You Cash In: Once they have registered and paid for their first month, complete this simple claim form.
- π° One-Time Reward: You receive a one-time $100 Account Credit for each new eligible child referred.
(Example: If you refer a family who enrolls 2 children for 4 months, you receive a total of $200. You do not receive credit for every month they attend.) - π€ Who is “New”? The referred child must be new to the Club (has not attended a BGC program during the current school year).
- β “Enrolled” Definition: A referral is considered valid only after the new family has paid their invoice for their first month of service.
- β±οΈ Timing: Credits are verified and applied to your account within 5 business days of form submission.
After the school year begins, families who registered for September are guaranteed their spot for the rest of the year, as long as they remain current and register by the monthly deadline. Spots do not reopen to the general community after September; they are only offered to waitlisted families on a one-in, one-out basis.
Hereβs how it works:
- Youβll have about three weeks each month to complete registration for the following month.
- The monthly registration deadline is the 15th.
- This is not a competitive process β your spot is already reserved β but you must confirm it each month to keep it active.
We also encourage you to register for the after-school program at our Stoneham Club to ensure you have guaranteed care in the meantime. We operate a daily bus route from Stoneham Public Schools to the Stoneham Club.
If you are offered a spot at your preferred school site, we will transfer your Stoneham Club credit toward that registration.
If we donβt receive your registration by the 23rd, your spot may be offered to another family. Weβll be communicating with you regularly before both dates so you have plenty of notice.
You are not charged for planned βno schoolβ days like federal holidays listed on the school calendar.
