[quote=Anonymous]The Y has promised to try to make better strides with aftercare options. Last year was a pretty big change with the new bundling and all. It was great when they had it onsite at the Y, they had swim, cooking, and Rick climbing all included in the price. The kids seem to love it. They do have good curriculum in aftercare and learn a lot about fun things like health, women's history, black history, and planets. They do talent shows and have dance parties. The school is very interested in enrichment, they just don't want to do too much too fast. They want to build the enrichment during the school day. They did dance (which was replaced with PE program with the Y), then they brought on the Spanish teacher, then this year the parents raised the funds to hire full time music teacher and the school has agreed to sustain her. The issue ITS admin had was they started too old. With 7th graders, and only 2 classes per grade (PS-3rd) and 1 each for 4-7th, their resources are scarce. The IFA has been tried to pick up where they can, they did chess last year, most grade PK and up have a soccer team and they practice in field in back, there is a Girls on The Run team for older girls. It will come. Which teacher do you have?[/quote]
