Kid Squad
We’re excited to welcome kids back for the 2020-2021 school year. With the recent announcement of school going remote for the start of the school year, the River Trails Park District is proud to announce KID SQUAD CONNECT- an extension program of Kid Squad to offer child care during the day.
KID SQUAD CONNECT
Kid Squad Connect is an extension program of Kids Squad that offers child care during the day at the River Trails Park District to meet the needs of local parents and children during remote learning. The River Trails Park District will offer a safe and supervised e-learning environment from 7:15 am to end of school day Monday-Friday.
Ages: 1st through 8th grades.
Options: Five-day, Three-day, and Two-day options are available.
This program does not meet when school is not in session. See Hit the Trails, on page 11, for school days out programming..
Please note– Participants in e-Learning must supply their own laptops, charger, extension cord, and headphones with a microphone.

We do not offer IT support, that will be up to you and your child if any situations arise.
