Morning Care
Morning Care, held at District 39 Schools, provides a safe, supportive, fun and interactive experience before school begins.
Care After School
CARE After School is focused on providing quality childcare with independent homework and structured, play-based free time. We will bus your child from their school to the Community Recreation Center. CARE is available until 4:45 pm or 6 pm. *If your child would like to register separately for an afternoon Park District program at the Community Recreation Center, CARE staff will escort your child to and from their scheduled program.
Campus Club
Choose your own adventure! Every day, Campus Club participants choose from a lineup of unique exploratory classes designed to build life skills and encourage social and emotional development. Time is also allotted each day for independent homework and structure, play based free time activities. *NEW IN 24-25: Lakeview Center Campus Club is for Central & McKenzie School students! Lakeview Center will offer the same exciting exploratory classes, as well as a focus on outdoor adventure.
School Day Off
On most full days off from school, we offer School Day Off programs. Registration fills up quickly, don’t delay!
Break Camps
We offer an extended School Day Off experience over Winter Break and Spring Break to give you the coverage you need while school is out of session. Registration fills up quickly, don’t delay!
