LEARNING & EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Curriculum:
YMCA Early Learning Program uses the Creative Curriculum in conjunction with the Gold assessment tool. The Creative curriculum incorporates experiences that permit learning through guided play and active discovery. By incorporating the latest research on early childhood, the curriculum focuses on development of the whole child – cognitive, social, and physical. We also provide electronic daily reports (tadpoles). Every month we have prepared special events and/or field trips for the children enrolled in our program.
THE YMCA EARLY LEARNING PROGRAM OFFERS:
- A safe and nurturing environment, instilling socially-conscious values and reinforcing positive skills.

The YMCA After School Program
Parents often worry where their children will go and what they’ll be doing once the school bell rings at the end of the day. When children are engaged in fun activities and surrounded by role models, they abstain from risky behavior.
From arts and crafts to field trips, the Center will provide academic enrichment, homework support, and a fun environment to help all students thrive. The new Center will provide after-school programming starting at 2:30 pm, and continuing until 6pm.
Transportation is provided from the following schools:
- Algonkian Elementary School
- Countryside Elementary School
- Forest Grove Elementary School
- Horizon Elementary School
- Lowes Island Elementary School
- Rolling Ridge Elementary School
- Sterling Elementary School
- Sully Elementary School

Like the power of a positive mentor, the confidence that comes from trying (and succeeding!), and the importance of healthy, long-lasting friendships. Of course, they don’t know this – they just think they’re having a whole lot of fun!
From water activities and sports to creative arts, each day is packed with age-appropriate activities, new friends and personal growth. In addition to traditional and specialty camp activities, we are uniquely devoted to physical activity, water safety and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics) education.
