Safety First!
Right At School’s top priority is to maintain a healthy and safe environment. Here are just a few of our best-practice safety policies:
- Hiring educators with experience in early childhood education–including teachers and paraprofessionals from your school district, so your children will be used to the friendly faces in our programs!
- Requiring all employees to pass a background check and complete a thorough training program.
- Following a strict attendance protocol to ensure every child expected to be in our programs is accounted for.
- Only adults formally authorized by the child's primary caregiver may pick up students, and each adult must provide their unique PIN.

We All Love Right At School
But don’t take our word for it. Find out what parents like you are saying.
Right At School has been such a positive experience for our family! Every day my son shares something about his day, when asked which part of his day made him feel happy he talks about the before and after care program! He absolutely loves attending both before and after care. This makes his working parents feel so relieved knowing his day starts and finishes on such a positive note!
— Mindy D. (Chicago, IL)
Right at School provides a fun, structured, and safe, after school care option for my child. I'm so thankful knowing my child is being well taken care of, can stay in a familiar environment, be active, and receive homework help. I can not emphasize enough the drastic difference between Right at School and a daycare center. I am very pleased with the program.
— Kelsey B. (Pullayup, WA)
My son says Right At School is his favorite time of the day. He loves playing after school with his friends and I like that he does not have to ride a bus/leave his campus for after school care. It is much safer for him to stay Right At School until I can pick him up.
— Samantha K. (Victoria, TX)
Our daughter loves Right at School. She has the opportunity to complete her homework with regularity, and gets to play with her friends for more time than she has during the school day. What's not to like?
— John S. (Lynbrook, NY)
The Right At School staff are so fun! My daughter is full of smiles at every pick-up and is excited to go. The staff help with her homework and provide fun activities to keep her busy and engaged in learning and social skills.
— Jodi S. (Chicago, IL)
My children love Right At School! As a mother, I appreciate and find relief in the fact that they are in caring hands. An added bonus is the additional academic support they provide. Right at School staff does a good job of balancing learning and fun.
— Kelli W. (Cleveland, OH)
Right At School is my daughter's favorite part of the day. It's the right mix of physical activity/movement, building friends and community at school (beyond the classroom), creativity and special projects/learning. My daughter has specifically repeated that I pick her up after her brother (at another school) so that she can stay longer. This is coming from a kid that used to always want to be picked up early – amazing!!!
— Amanda B. (Encinitas, CA)
I know my daughter is in excellent care with Right at School. They are able to nurture her needs while also understanding when she needs to be independent. So glad we have this option! It's been a huge help for us all.
