San Salvador - School Report Question and Answers

Is there before and/or after-school daycare available? What are the costs?

One day a week the older class (roughly 3.5-6 years old) has an optional "extended day" that runs until 4 pm. For the 2024-2025 school year it cost $880 (which the State Department declined to cover because they deemed it "extracurricular"). - Jan 2025


Not now. In normal times there were after-school programs, I’ve heard. - Mar 2022


There is after-school care for lower primary called el nido, about $1 per day. Crazy cheap. Plus, they have extras for sports, music and more after school for all ages. - Sep 2020


Don't know of any 'daycare' per se but lots of after school activities for most grades. - May 2018


I think so, but I don't know anything about costs. - Nov 2016
