YMCA Expanded Learning Programs, a division of the YMCA of San Diego County, provides state and federally funded before and after school programs. We partner with local school districts, families, and communities to offer students safe and nurturing expanded learning programs that prepare them for college, career, and life. This is accomplished by creating a safe and supportive environment, ensuring that programs are student-focused and engaging, as well as building relationships with our parents and community partners.
Our expanded learning programs are designed collaboratively with district partners to provide students with fun, educational and engaging environments during the hours most parents or guardians are working. Activities focus on academics, enrichment, building social skills, and getting children physically active.
Funded by the California Department of Education, schools with Expanded Learning Programs have 81% of their students eligible for free or reduced-price meals and serve lower income households.
