School Age Enrichment Programs

School Age Enrichment

At YWCA Lancaster, we understand the challenges working families face in finding safe and enriching care for their children outside of school hours. That's why our School Age and Kindergarten Enrichment programs are designed to provide a supportive environment where children can thrive.

School Age Enrichment Program

Our Before & After School programs ensure that school-age children have a safe, engaging place to go before and after their school day. These programs balance learning and fun, helping kids to develop important social skills, enhance their academic knowledge, and engage in physical activities. Our dedicated staff are positive role models who encourage children to explore their interests and build self-confidence.

Kindergarten Enrichment Program

For our youngest learners, the Kindergarten Enrichment Program (WRAP program) offers supplemental care that fills the gap for working families. This program complements half-day kindergarten by providing a full day of educational and recreational activities. Kindergartners engage in structured learning experiences that foster their cognitive, emotional, and social development. Through hands-on activities, interactive play, and guided learning, children develop a love for learning that sets the foundation for future academic success.
