About our Program

The Kids’ Zone program is a cooperative program between Geneva School District and Geneva Park District available to students in grades K-5 who attend Fabyan, Harrison, Heartland, Mill Creek, Western and Williamsburg Elementary Schools. This is a recreational-based program at the students’ elementary schools that provides care before and after school, and includes snack, homework time, and a variety of activities from sports, crafts, team building, group games, and more.

Program Philosophy

Kids’ Zone provides opportunities for all participants to develop a positive self-image through experiences in a fun, friendly, structured, and safe environment. Participants will develop their social skills through interaction and different activities including problem solving, teamwork, and following basic directions. This program creates a stimulating environment where children are able to choose their own activities and projects that allow them to learn and grow at their own rate. Our goal is to provide a program that strongly supports the six pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. “Character Counts” and benefits of a healthy lifestyle are also incorporated in all aspects of Kids’ Zone.
