After School
At YMCA After School, kids expand their learning beyond the classroom. We use a balanced curriculum that supports learning through active play and a focus on character development and social-emotional learning. We also offer a quiet space and support for students to work on their homework Monday through Thursday afternoons.
During the week, students will participate in a variety of enrichment activities with opportunities for skill development, physical activity and fun.
After School is held from school dismissal until 6 p.m.
Registration
The YMCA offers two different ways to register for After School – by the year or by the week. Read more about how to choose between these two registration options.
Both yearly and weekly options allow you to register for fewer than five days per week. Prices are adjusted based on the number of days. The cost per day increases when fewer than five days a week are chosen.
