Afterschool Care 2024-2025 School Year
The YMCA afterschool program is more than just a safe place for students to hangout after the bell rings. We design our program to nurture potential, improve academic engagement and achievement, build confidence, and to support the healthy development of spirit, mind, and body. The YMCA provides a safe, fun and active atmosphere with a focus on our core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. We strive to provide an inclusive environment for every child to thrive in.
Our Afterschool program serves students that attend School District #2 schools and other schools in Billings and surrounding areas. Grades we serve are grades K-5th. We also serve 6th grade students who are located at elementary school. We do not bus from middle schools, that attend School District #2 schools and other schools in Billings and surrounding areas.
$30 non-refundable registration is applied for each child.
Cost: Member $330/month and Community $442/month
