Poko Loko has been a fully insured, state licensed center since opening its Glenview school in 1965.
Today the same family that started the Glenview schools operates its three locations.
Our service is to care for and educate children between the ages of 6 weeks through Kindergarten.
Our main goal is for your child to be happy and secure while away from his or her parents.
We wish to keep your child safe and help maintain their good health.
In addition, we hope to teach cooperation, sharing, and communication skills, as well as other preschool tasks through creative educational activities.
Our curriculum is theme based and includes a variety of topics, thus helping to ensure a well rounded child who is perfectly ready to enter grade school.
