Shawnee Public Schools offers its employees reduced-cost child care with the Pup Pack.

The child care center follows the teacher work calendar and is open before, during, and after the teacher work day. Plus, with the Pup Pack being at Shawnee Early Childhood Center, parents can be assured their children are safe while at work.

Offering affordable, quality child care that works with the teachers' schedule is just one more reason to join the SPS team.
