Kids Club is a child care program offered by Monroe Public Schools since 1986 for children ages 2 ½ - 12. Kids Club provides caring adult supervision and a variety of activities for preschool and elementary students from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. All Centers are licensed by the Michigan Department of Licensing, Consumer & Industry Services, and maintain adult staff-to-child ratios to provide a safe quality environment and individualized attention for each child.
The three components of the program include:
- Before and after school care for grades K-6 at Custer and Riverside.
- All-day child care for Preschoolers at Riverside.
- Summer Child Care for ages 2 ½ - 12.
Kids Club offers physical activities, games, crafts, creative projects and socialization, as well as quiet areas for the children. Trained, qualified, caring staff offers a “home away from home” atmosphere with child-oriented activities that are a departure from their regular school schedule. Summer Kids Club offers an informal environment of fun, swimming, creative projects, reading, and outdoor activities. A program of fun, interesting, challenging activities and projects offering opportunities for children's socialization, creative expression and higher level thinking skill development are planned by the Center's Activity Specialists.
LUNCH: Can be purchased through the school lunch program or a sack lunch may be brought from home.
TRANSPORTATION: Provided by Monroe Public Schools. Students (K-6) will be transported to their home-based school in the morning and then back to the center after school. Parents are responsible for transportation of preschool children who are in all-day child care.
