Out of School Learning - Before & After School Care

We know learning and fun doesn’t end when the school bell rings. That’s why you can count on the Duneland Family YMCA to make before/after school care easy and convenient - right at your child's school!

Out of School Learning offers MORE than just supervision! Led by qualified, caring staff, the Duneland Family YMCA’s Out of School Learning program is designed to be fun, educational, and align with the school day by supporting literacy, arts, and science growth. Your child will receive help with their homework, participate in games, activities, and grow their creativity through various projects. A healthy snack will also be provided.
