Before and After School Academy is part of the YMCA’s history of dedication to youth development. It was established to meet the needs of working parents while providing children with a fun, safe, and enriching environment.
Our program offers a variety of daily activities focusing on the following:
- Academic support
- CATCH curriculum
- Confidence and character development
- Fitness and health education
- Games
- Service learning
- Homework support with certified teachers
- YMCA Healthy eating and physical activity standards
- Healthy snacks
- Guest speakers and demonstrations
- Arts and crafts
- So much more!
Financial Scholarships are available through our Open Doors program
If your child is a Member at a YMCA outside the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina, they still qualify for Member pricing. However, you will need to come into a YMCA branch to register.
