Our Afterschool Program begins at the end of the school day and runs until 6:00pm. We provide youth in Putnam County a place to go after school where they are cared for by caring, trained staff. Our Afterschool Program strives to help children develop to their full potential, focusing on self-awareness, confidence, academic achievement, and physical skills.
All staff are CPR & First Aid certified through the American Red Cross, YMCA trained in age appropriate activities and Child Abuse Prevention, background checked, and selected for their ability to work well with children.
Children will be provided with a healthy snack in accordance with the WV Department of Education Child Nutrition program guidelines set by the USDA.
