BEFORE & AFTER SCHOOL INFORMATION

The YMCA Before and After School Age Care program provides quality, affordable care for children in grades K–6 that promotes social, emotional, and cognitive development. Operating from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, the program offers a safe and supportive environment for children during before and after school hours, including early release days, so parents can work a full day with confidence.

Each day features a mix of homework support, structured physical activity, and creative, hands-on projects that encourage learning and growth. Children build friendships, practice teamwork, and develop positive character values in a fun, inclusive setting.

Our caring, trained staff create a welcoming space where kids can thrive, with a focus on healthy living, academic enrichment, and social responsibility. The YMCA partners with families and schools to ensure a seamless experience that meets the needs of both children and parents.
