Whether you're looking for a safe, fun and meaningful Before-And-After-School Program or a top Pre-K through 1st Grade School, Just For Kids has your children covered all under one roof!

Founded by an award-winning former elementary school teacher, Just For Kids is located in the peaceful Morgan Park area, and features a hardwood basketball court, themed classrooms, a kitchen, and dining room where meals and nutritious snacks are served.
