The Y Difference

Through guided play children learn values, positive behaviors, to respect themselves and others, work out their differences and discover the value of friendship.

Academic support from caring role models enriches your child's educational experience and enables families to spend more quality time together.

 

Our Values - Caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. We reinforce the values you teach at home.

Character Development - All of our activities and discussions incorporate the four core values.

Choice Time - Kids are given activity choices where they make friends, learn, play and thrive.

Theme Weeks - Exciting themes guide each week’s activities to keep kids engaged. 

Physical Activity - Fitness is vital to your child’s health so we include daily physical activity and movement through indoor gym or outdoor games.

Community Connections - Social responsibility and volunteerism are reinforced through service learning projects.
