Chicago · Licensed center
First Academy
- Small center, licensed for 20 children.
- Shortlist has found no website for it yet.
What these mean, and where they come from
Small means the smallest quarter of Chicago-area’s 1,949 licensed centers by state-licensed capacity: 8 to 48 children. Medium is 49 to 118; large is 119 to 487.
Shortlist doesn’t have these yet: cost, hours and late pickup, teaching approach, ratios and staff, a typical day, sick and biting policies.
What the state has found
State record — Illinois DCFS
Illinois DCFS has published no inspection report for this provider as of September 2026. That is not the same as a clean record — there is nothing on file either way.
