Playschool
AGE 3 YEARS
The Playschool program is guided by a philosophy of learning through
play. Students begin their school day by walking into a clean, warm and
inviting classroom. They may choose to browse a book while relaxing
in our cozy reading center, express individual creativity at the art table,
or manipulate a tornado bottle to create a vortex at our science table.
Each day in class, students have the opportunity to explore five learning
centers: art, science, math, reading, and imaginative play. Instructors
maintain the interest of the children by introducing concepts used at each
learning center. Concepts are reinforced through interactive songs, flannel
board stories, group activities, storytelling and gym time. Our primary
vision is for children to develop a love of learning and a positive selfimage while preparing them for the Preschool experience. Children must
be toilet-trained. A birth certificate is needed for registration.

Tot School is guided by a philosophy of learning through play, because
play is the foundation of critical thinking, creativity and learning. It
also helps children make emotional and social meaning. Children have
a natural gift to play but it can fade if it is not exercised. Therefore,
our thoughtfully planned lessons introduce children to colors, shapes,
weather, music, art and the world around them. Every effort is made to
provide for their safety, comfort and happiness. Our primary vision for the
children is to develop a love of playing while learning and developing a
positive self-image while preparing them for Playschool.

Over the summer we completed the first phase of upgrades

entrance, Franklin the Penguin signs and a fresh coat of paint

The second phase will begin at the end of April 2015 and
require the Ice Arena be closed for four months. The first part
of this project will involve the removal of our existing dasher
boards and concrete slab. The five miles of steel pipe currently
under the Main Arena slab will be replaced with polyethylene
piping. The piping in our Studio Arena will also be replaced
along with the four HVAC units.
Even with a shortened season, most programs will be
unaffected. With the exception of summer programs and
camps, the other three seasons will be in full swing. Our goal
with this new state of the art system, is to provide excellent ice
for an additional forty years.

Park District Informaton
Am I a Resident or
Non-Resident of the Park
District of Franklin Park?
You are a Resident of the Park District if you live within Park District boundaries
(that is, in Franklin Park, north of Grand Avenue). You are a Non-Resident if you
reside outside that area. All are welcome to participate in our programs; however,
Non-Residents are sometimes charged a slightly higher fee. In this brochure, “R”
indicates a Resident fee, while “NR” indicates a Non-Resident fee.
Resident Pass
Park District Residents are required to get a Resident Pass to receive discounted
rates on programs, events, passes and rentals. To get your pass, bring a valid
driver’s license or state ID and a current property tax or utility bill showing
your name and address to the Community Center. Children must also obtain a
pass. Parents/guardians must provide a copy of each child’s birth certificate or
guardian papers. The pass serves as proof of residency and is good for one year.
Replacement passes are $6.
Code of Conduct/Participant
Guidelines
Equal Access
No participant shall, on the basis of race, sex, creed, national origin or disability,
be denied equal access to programs, activities, services or benefits, or be limited in
the exercise of any right, privilege, advantage or opportunity.
The Park District staff has made every effort to prepare this brochure as accurately as
possible. However, errors can occur. Circumstances may require that adjustments be made
to programs, fees, schedules, etc. The Park District reserves the right to make any such
adjustments. The Park District apologizes for any inconvenience these errors or adjustments
may cause.
Lost and Stolen Policy
Personal items brought to the Park District of Franklin Park facilities are the responsibility of
the individual. We recommend that items be secured in lockers when provided at facilities.
The Park District does not maintain a lost and found, and cannot accept responsibility for
items left at Park District facilities, fields or parks.
Employers
All employees of Franklin Park businesses located north of Grand Avenue are now
eligible to receive in-district rates, regardless of residency! Employees can simply
bring in documentation of employment on company letterhead or their most recent
pay stub. Direct family members living at the same address are also eligible to receive
the discounted rate. They are required to show photo identification and a recent bill
displaying the employee’s address, as well as a birth certificate or guardian papers for
each child. We are happy to work with you to establish special programs or trips for
your employees!
Registration
To register for Park District programs, please submit your completed form with full
payment by mail, in person or by fax at 847-455-9053. Walk-in registration is strongly
encouraged for in-district residents.
Behavior
1. Please use the program number indicated for your activity.
Participants are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior at all times. The
following guidelines have been developed to make Park District programs safe
and enjoyable for all participants. Additional rules may be developed for particular
programs and athletic leagues as deemed necessary by staff. Participants shall:
2. All individuals interested in any Park District of Franklin Park programs may mail in
or drop off their registration.
• Show respect to all participants and staff
• Refrain from using foul language
• Refrain from causing bodily harm to other participants and staff
• Show respect for equipment, supplies and facilities
4. If you are a Non-Resident (live outside Park District boundaries), your registration
will be processed (in order received) on Wednesday, August 6, 2014.
Discipline
A positive approach will be used regarding discipline. The Park District of Franklin
Park reserves the right to dismiss a participant. Each situation will be evaluated on
its own merit.
Youth Participation Guidelines
From time to time, the Park District has had the challenge of dealing with children
registered for Park District programs whose excitement level and enthusiasm were
beyond the capabilities of our staff. In the event that such a child is involved in any
of these programs, the staff will notify the child’s parents that they are not capable
of adequately supervising such a child. The Park District will gladly refund the prorated portion of any fees. The Park District has made every effort to hire capable
staff for all programs, but there are occasions when, for the good of the entire
program, the Park District must insist that parents remove unmanageable children
from the program. Your cooperation as a parent will be greatly appreciated, and
your understanding will allow the Park District of Franklin Park to better serve
all youth.
We Love Parents, but…
With your child’s best interest in mind, we ask that parents do not remain in
class, or bring other children into class during any of our youth programs, unless
specifically approved by the instructor. This may interrupt the participant’s
attention and inhibit the establishment of peer relationships. Thank you for your
understanding and cooperation.
26
Oops!
3. If you are a Park District Resident (live within Park District boundaries) your
registration will be processed (in order received) on Monday, August 4, 2014.
WALK-IN registrations may be dropped off at the Park District of Franklin Park
Community Center, 9560 Franklin Avenue, during our regular office hours: Monday
through Thursday, 9 am-8 pm; Friday, 9 am-5 pm; Saturday, 9 am-12 pm. The Ice
Arena will accept class registrations during the hours that the Community Center
office is closed.
Refund Policy
The Park District issues pro-rated refunds minus a $5 administration fee for most
programs, provided a written application is completed prior to the start of the third
class. Refunds for trips are only issued if a replacement participant can be found.
There are no refunds of any league fees and for certain programs as noted in their
descriptions. Refunds can only be issued to the person registered for the program.
Refunds in excess of $10 are issued within 45 days of application. Refunds of $10
or less are credited toward any other Park District program or service. Refunds can
be issued on Community Center room rentals if customer provides advance notice,
a minimum of 14 days before the rental date. There is a $10 administrative fee for
cancellation of room or gym rentals.
Insurance Coverage
The Park District of Franklin Park does NOT carry accident insurance on any
participants. Each participant’s own accident insurance should cover health care costs.
All participants registering in any program will be required to sign our waiver and
release form before registration is valid. All persons of legal age shall be asked to sign
a waiver of liability at the time of fee payment for any Park District program or service.
All persons under the age of 18 shall be required to have a parent or legal guardian
sign on their behalf. Failure to sign the waiver may void registration without a refund.
Please contact the Park District of Franklin Park at 847-455-2852 for complete details.
Please note: The signed waiver form must be returned with registration.
