VIK Club (Very Important Kid)

VIK ClubDesigned to support the needs of today's working families, the VIK club is a safe, fun-filled extended learning program for children in K-Prep through 6th grade enrolled in district schools.

We are proud to offer enrichment opportunities that accomplish two major goals: reinforcing the excellent educational programming at Gilbert Public Schools and encouraging personal growth by cultivating life skills, strong relationships and a sense of self worth.

NOTICE: Due to upgrades in GPS Technology Services, we will experience an interruption in our on-line services, including on-line payments, on Monday 3/15 and Wednesday 3/17. On Monday, parent ability make on-line payments may be sporadically interrupted. On Wednesday 3/17, the ability to make on-line payments will not be available. Due to this interruption, the payment due date for Week 33 (week of March 22) will be Tuesday 3/16 rather than Monday 3/15. We have also extended the due date for the month of April's K-Prep payment to March 16th rather than March 15th.
