The Washington DCJCC’s No School Today program offers an active day of art, play, sports and surprises. We offer a full-day program to accommodate your work schedule and help your kids celebrate their days off. Activities include swimming, art, mini-field trips and activities the kids themselves choose.

The J's No School Today program follows the DC Public School's schedule for conferences, plus Columbus Day and Veteran's Day.  We are not able to offer the program on other days at this time.
