Established in 2019

Oak Park JETS was founded and obtained 501c3 status in 2019.  JETS was born out of a desire to support equitable outcomes for all our youth.  JETS creates a community where all students belong and we will never allow financial resources to be a barrier to participation.   

JETS, an acronym for "Joining Everyone Together for Success," is possible because of the incredible team serving on our Board, as Coaches, Study Buddies, Thought Partners, Volunteers and through Community Partnerships.
