What Our Staff Have to Say:

"Before working at Just for Kids, I was struggling to find a teaching job,but then I found this job. The most important part of my professional growth would be managing the kids, creating fun and engaging activities, learn how to manage staff, and communicate with parents. This job has taught me a great deal and will prepare me for the future, when there are more teaching jobs, but until then, I'd like to stay at Just for Kids for a long time." 
-Current JFK Staff
 
"In the past year the most important part of my professional development has been gaining more responsibility through my work. When I first started I was given minimum work and walked through the process, but now I am trusted to do things on my own and have much more responsibility." 
-Current JFK Staff

What the Kids have to say:

"My counselor, Miss D., helps me every day with my homework assignments. She helps explain the hard to do math problems. She is kind and takes the time to make sure I get it! Plus I have fun doing all the great arts and crafts." 

- Mary P., 5th Grade Student, Heim Middle
