JCAtion Days
When school is out, JCAtion Days are IN! On days when Duval County Public Schools are closed, families can send their children in grades K – 8 to the JCA for a day of fun.
Overview
On days when school is closed, send your children to the JCA to explore, create, learn and have fun with friends!
Children choose from a variety of sports, STEM and art activities to fill their JCAtion Days. Parents and guardians can leave their worries at the door as their children enter our safe, nurturing environment supervised by our responsible and energetic staff.
