AFTER SCHOOL CARE    

At the Y, kids have the opportunity to experience physical and engaging activities that encourage them to make friends, have fun, and get active!  Through guided play, children learn to respect themselves and others, work out their differences, and discover the value of friendship. Homework help, arts and crafts, games, and outdoor activities--all under the guidance of caring employees--are available in the Y's program, open to children in grades Kindergarten through 8th grade. After School Care will start on August 2nd this year. The program will take place at the Athens-McMinn Family YMCA. We will be offering after school pick-up at the following locations:

  • Athens City Middle School
  • Athens City Intermediate School
  • Athens City Primary School
  • Riceville Elementary School 

We will also provide After School programming for any family who is able to pick their child up and transport them to the YMCA for programming, also known as parent drop off.
