We reside in a eight year-new building on the western portion of Island Lake. Our building has a unique eye-catching shape with a total of 10,000 square feet. There are 6 classrooms, a Music and Activity room, a Conference room, a Kitchen, and a Front Office on the ground floor. A second floor consists of a Financial Office, a Technology room, and a Storage room.
The entire building offers a large amount of natural light and heated floors. With keeping our children safe and healthy, the floors are a cutting-edge, stained concrete with warm educational rugs and comfort child-size areas to play.
Each classroom is set up with the teachers in the classroom and an Educational Director on site full-time. All of the classrooms offer age-appropriate learning opportunities. Our center follows the National Association of Education for Young Children (NAEYC) guidelines, the State of Illinois Department of Children Families Services standards (DCFS), and most recently the Quality Rating System (QRS).

Young Scholars sits on two acres of land between the Island Lake Water Tower Park and Cotton Creek Elementary School. Our building faces Route 176 with access from Kora Lane, next to Fifth Third Bank of Island Lake. We currently have over a 12,000 square foot outdoor play area. This area is completely fenced in with a life-guard style fence. Our goal for 2004 and 2005 was to create a $120,000 playground that included separate large-motor structures for Infant through Toddlers, Two through Five Year-Olds, and Six through Twelve Year-Olds. We accomplished our goals! The playground also includes swings in all age groups, a bike path, large climbing structures as well as teeter-totters. Our goal for 2011 and 2012 is to install shade in each of the three playgrounds.
