Our Programs

Part Day Preschool Program

Part-Day Preschool Program

Ages: 37 months - 5 years

This is more than a playgroup – it’s your child’s first school experience away from parents or guardians. Designed for kids 2 – 5 years, the Y’s Part-Day Preschool program encourages social interaction and listening skills at the hands of caring, experienced teachers, and aides. Children will be introduced to the wonderful world of colors, shapes, songs, music, movement, friendship, and more. Pre-K age children will also be taught beginning writing and reading skills, along with math concepts.

Supplemental Kindergarten

Supplemental Kindergarten

Ages: 4 - 5

The Supplemental Kindergarten program provides school-day enrichment activities for children enrolled in half-day school district kindergarten programs. The Y provides a complement to half-day kindergarten, providing materials and support to build upon skills developed at school and become lifelong learners.

This program is only available for the Springford School District.

School Age Care

Full Day School Age Care

Ages: 5 - 12

Wondering what to do with your kids when school is closed but you still have to work? The Y provides care when your child’s school is closed, including most in-service days and holidays. Your child will engage in social and educational activities along with plenty of physical activity while at the Y.

*Completed forms must be obtained prior to attending. Registration for the 2024-2025 school year opens August 15.
