AFTERSCHOOL
AFTERSCHOOL
The AfterSchool Program is a safe place for children to play, learn, and grow when out of school. Our qualified and caring staff focus on nurturing the development of each child. We provide a place to have fun, make new friends, and become more active.
The YMCA’s AfterSchool program serves children from Pre-K to 5th graders and is available at Pine Ridge Elementary, Jasper Elementary School, Holy Trinity Central Campus, Dubois Elementary, and the Tri-County YMCA. Children create lasting memories as they engage in a variety of educational and imaginative activities that encourage them to explore who they are and what they can achieve. Led by qualified, caring staff, the Tri-County YMCA's AfterSchool program is designed to be fun and educational, and align with the school day, supporting growth in literacy, arts, and science. Your child will receive help with their homework, participate in games and activities and grow their creativity through a variety of projects. A healthy snack is also provided.
AfterSchool helps build a healthy spirit, mind, and body in a fun setting environment. Children will receive a snack, homework time, participate in crafts, games, indoor/outdoor play, and other organized fun while demonstrating our five character values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility, and faith.
The Y provides a healthy snack after school.
If your child has any allergies or requires a special diet, please note it on your registration form and we will make sure the staff is aware of it.
