childcare
Troy Rec After School Program operates city-owned before/after school care at 11 N Market St in Troy, Ohio, serving elementary students in grades K–5 through morning (7:00–8:45 am) and afternoon (3:15–6:00 pm) sessions on school days. As an affordable, municipally operated program, it offers accessible childcare during critical hours when parents work, with bus transportation available by request. The facility underwent recent renovations and charges $35 annually plus per-week rates ($42 morning-only, $52 afternoon-only, or $72 for both). The program lacks public parent reviews, making independent verification of day-to-day experience difficult; potential families may benefit from direct contact with the program.
