BEFORE CAREBefore Care is a program that provides early morning care and transportation to children attending public school. Before Care meets at the Main Y from 7:00am until the bus arrives to take children to school. Children need to be present by 8:10am for bussing.KEY (Kids Enjoying the Y)Our KEY program runs out of the Main Y building on Clark Street. Transportation is available from all the Westfield Public Schools and Holy Trinity School in Westfield. Children can also be enrolled at our off-site locations: McKinley, Tamaques, Jefferson, Wilson, Washington, and Lincoln School in Westfield.Under the leadership of a Coordinator, all KEY groups are staffed with lead counselors (and Junior Counselors at the Main Y location). Our staffing plan for each site is based on a 12:1 ratio.Children enjoy arts and crafts, science experiences, recreational activities, and playground time. A scheduled time for homework is also planned into the program Monday – Thursday. Each day a healthy snack is provided. Our program follows the Y of the USA curriculum. Activities build respect, honesty, caring and responsibility in the children we serve.EXTENDED CAREExtended care is available for our children enrolled in the Main Y KEY program. It is simply an extension of the KEY program. This program runs from 6:00 – 6:30pm. We offer games and free choice activities as the children wind down from their afternoon here at the Westfield Area Y.EXTRA CURRICULAR CLASSESExtra curricular classes are any Y classes (swimming, rock climbing, etc.) that you sign your child up for separate from the KEY Program. You may register for classes online or at the Welcome Center. This option is available for children in the Main Y KEY program only.When signing up we ask that you sign up for classes that begin between 4:00-6:00pm. This allows you child to have enough time to arrive and have snack before their scheduled class. It is the responsibility of the parent to pick up children in classes that end at 6:00pm or later. If you have signed your child up for any of these activities, you must complete an extracurricular form in its entirety before classes begin AND for each new session. No child will be permitted to attend a class without a form on file. Forms are available in the SACC office.
