Elevating Youth Voices & Shaping Future Leaders

Serving TK-8th grade students, Y Scholars programs support students as they discover their purpose and reach their full potential. We offer daily afterschool programming and summer day camps that focus on academics, physical play, and creativity. Our mission is to elevate youth voices by providing enrichment opportunities that promote leadership learning and healthy habits.

Our Enrichment Focus

Physical Play

We ensure students are physically active for at least 30 minutes with games, sports, play, and movement.

Academic Achievement

We guide activities and homework support to focus on literacy and writing skills.

Creative Curiosity

We utilize arts, dance, and STEAM activities to foster teamwork and expose students to new experiences.
