With the school year fast approaching and your once again hectic schedules right around the corner, have you thought about enrolling your child in any after school programs, whether it’s educational or health and wellness Here at YMCA Dallas we strongly believe that education and health & wellness should go beyond the classroom and continue throughout the entire day. We offer structured after school programs that provide enriching activities for your child to continue their educational growth.
Whether your child joined us at our summer camps or attended some elsewhere, the next thing we would love for them to do is join us for our after school program. In order to keep your children active after sitting at a desk all day at school, you need to consider putting them in a program that continues their activity, both to further their education and to keep them healthy and fit.
As a leader in youth development, we understand the importance of providing our participants with a balance of academically rich activities as well as enhanced focus on overall physical well-being. We work side by side with industry experts, and school districts to design experienced that help your child learn, grow and thrive.
Our goal is to offer a holistic approach to youth development. We offer hands-on learning experiences by creating unique enrichment activities, encouraging active and healthy lifestyles and fostering strong character values and social skills.
Our staff are carefully selected and receive over 30 hours of training from child development to the importance of being a positive role model. All staff must pass a comprehensive background and reference check prior to employment.
Homework is important to their learning so we have a dedicated time in which the children work on their homework .
