ParkSchool is a fresh new concept in early childhood education that combines modern education methods with the expertise in recreation and access to the natural world that only the Park District of Highland Park can provide. Our educational staff and recreational professionals deliver a new level of learning, with the goal of preparing them for success in kindergarten.

A Day at ParkSchool
