Welcome to McKemy Academy Kid Zone where we create memorable childhood experiences every day through hands-on, fun, enrichment learning located on your school campus. Our program is licensed by the Department of Health Services (DHS) and offers low staff to child ratios that enhance the quality of programming and provide the safest possible environment.
When you walk through the door at McKemy Academy Kid Zone you will see a variety of enriching activities such as STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), fine arts, literacy, homework club, cooking class, and much more! All the planning at McKemy Academy Kid Zone is intentional and supports the learning goals of the school district as well as national standards. Every project, group game, special event, and activity has a purpose to help develop your student and enhance their passion and excitement for the world around them.
McKemy Academy Kid Zone is a unique entity that provides youth with opportunities to explore skill building, social skills, and community service while building friendships which supports their emotional and physical growth dedicated to supporting the “whole child.”
