General Information
Kids Club is a JCC member program that provides youth in grades K-5 the opportunity to develop new interests and challenge their minds and bodies through the use of the JCC facilities. From the double gymnasium, playground, to the ball field and library, our Kids Club members are constantly engaged in activities.
Kids Club is the safe, convenient, and innovative program you’ve been looking for! We foster a family environment where each child can build strong relationships, nurture special interests, and develop positive self-esteem. Participants enjoy a variety of activities in grade-level groups. One of the biggest benefits of Kids Club is safe supervision for your children to and from enrichment classes: sports, dance, swimming, and other JCC activities. We welcome children in kindergarten through grade 5 with a current JCC membership or enrolled at AFIA.
Hours of Operation
Kids Club is open Monday through Friday from school dismissal until 6 pm. A late fee of $10.00 for the first 5 minutes, plus $2.00 for each additional minute late, will be assessed for children who are picked up after 6 pm. We closely follow the NISD and NEISD calendars to provide you and your children with continuous programming.

Schools
SCHOOLS: Kids Club begins at school. We work closely to coordinate a daily pick up at the following schools*: Blattman, EKHLA, Hidden Forest, Oak Meadow, and Castle Hills Elementary. Space is limited for transportation and cannot be guaranteed. We coordinated with the Anne Frank Inspire Academy to ensure students are transitioned to the designated areas.
*School pick-up at listed schools or other schools in the area is not guaranteed. There is a minimum number of students required to consider or maintain a school pick up. We coordinate our pick up based on enrollment and transportation routes. These may vary with each school year. For interested new families, we ask for a 48 hour window to determine if your child’s spot is secured for pick up.
Please contact the Youth & Camp Department to Register.
