News...
PLEASE NOTE: COVID-19 is still a risk in our community! We have had multiple incidents of people connected to either staff or students testing positive for COVID even after vaccination. Please help us protect our students and our staff by continuing to take precautions when out and about in the community. Take extra care while traveling outside of the community. And remember that mask use is still a requirement inside of our building by all people aged 2 years and older.
Pre-K Program Coming Soon
Dear Katie's Kids Families,

Katie’s Kids is working on some exciting changes for our preschool age program!

Although we feel strongly in the values of mixed age grouping, we also see a need for our older friends to have some specialized opportunities the year before going off to Kindergarten. We want to ensure that they are fully prepared to be the most successful they can be when they walk in to Kindergarten!

In order to do this, we are adapting Room 7 into a Pre-K class starting August 30, 2021. The classroom will be comprised of all 4 & 5 year olds. Each August, children from Rooms 5 & 6 who are eligible for kindergarten the following fall will move into Room 7. 

This August, our first eligible group will make this transition.  

Please do not hesitate to contact us with questions. 

KKLC Leadership Team
Back to School Drive
Each year we host an opportunity to help families in need by purchasing school supplies for the coming school year. This year the need for these items is expected to be greater than ever.

The biggest needs for this year are boxes of 24 count crayons, thick and thin Crayola markers, and composition notebooks.

Please place any donated items into the box located in our lobby.

Thank you for helping us support our community!
COVID-19...
Hours of Operation:
Our hours of operation will continue to be 6:45am to 5:30 pm. All drop off and pick up procedures will remain the same.

  • DCFS is still requiring that all adults and children over the age of 2 wear a mask inside of our building. We understand that fully vaccinated individuals are not required to wear a mask. We do ask that adults be good role models and wear a mask at drop off and pick up as your child will continue to wear a mask.
  • If you are not feeling well or hold any COVID symptoms please arrange for someone else to drop of and pick up your child. This is to protect your family and the staff.
  • If you are in quarantine due to a potential exposure, please make arrangements for someone else to drop off and pick up your child.
