KCPS PD DAYS Program

In an exciting partnership between the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City (BGCGKC), Kansas City Public Schools, Turn the Page KC, and the Out-of-School Time Collaborative, we are pleased to offer childcare options for KCPS students on days that KCPS is closed for professional development (PD DAYS).

We understand that as parents and guardians, you want the absolute best for your children – even when school is out for those important professional development days. That’s why we’re thrilled to offer a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for your youngsters during those times. Our dedicated team at the Thornberry and J&D Wagner Units are rolling out the red carpet to ensure your kids have an awesome time!
