Offered in cooperation with Community Unit School District 303 and held at various schools, Baker Station provides a caring, secure environment. Children will enjoy arts & crafts, participate in small/large motor activities, read stories, play board games, do homework and have a snack. Participants will also go outside, weather permitting. Private school students are welcome to attend, but parents must provide transportation from the private school to the Baker Station site. Baker Station begins at 3pm. Parents must walk in to each school site to check-out their child(ren) no later than 6pm.
If District 303 schools are closed, Baker Station will NOT be held. Please plan to make alternate arrangements.
