We believe the values and skills learned early on are vital building blocks for life. Because of the Y, more young people are taking a greater interest in learning and making smarter life choices. At PrimeTime Y, children learn values and positive behaviors, and can explore their unique talents and interests, helping them realize their potential. That makes for confident kids today and contributing and engaged adults tomorrow.
Learn, Grow, Thrive with the Y
You'll know they are growing and exploring their potential; they'll think they are just having fun.
- More Physical Activity: PrimeTime Y includes at least 30 minutes of physical activity per day. We use the most researched and field-tested PE program in the world, SPARK PE (Sports, Play & Active Recreation for Kids) curriculum.
- Eating Right: Y afterschool care teaches kids proper nutrition through the Y Food & Fun Afterschool Curriculum.
- Homework Assistance: Children get assistance during our homework time or can choose free reading and writing time.
- The Y Afterschool Staff: Our staff is carefully selected and gets hours of training on childhood development, classroom management, innovative curriculum activities, the 40 Developmental Assets and how to live the Y values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
- We Partner with Schools: We work with the schools to provide care on school grounds with support and help from the school district. Our curriculum is coordinated with the school to compliment the children’s school day curriculum.
