School Age
At YMCA School Age Care children 5 through 12 will become connected to their community with a true sense of belonging in a safe and fun place to spend their time before and after school. Children will spend their time engaged in active, healthy activities with enthusiastic and caring YMCA role models, including healthy snacks, homework help, and daily outdoor play. Our values-based program uses the fundamentals of YMCA Healthy Child Development by creating opportunities for play, health, and positive relationships to allow them to learn, grow and thrive!
