Before School Care Program

Our School-Age Child Care (SACC) Program serves children in the Elementary schools for the South Orange/Maplewood School District and follows the School District’s Calendar. Our programs do not run when the schools close for inclement weather. Our YMCA does offer a Child Care program called “Vacation Camp” for most of the scheduled days that the school district is closed.

Starting Times & Locations: This Program is offered to children in grades K-5 and is held on site, in the individual school cafeterias at the following elementary schools: (before school care is  not available at Jefferson Elementary)

Opening at 7:15am **          
Clinton                                     
South Mountain/South Mountain Annex*        

Opening at 7:30**

*The program for South Mountain Annex students is held at the South Mountain Elementary School, and it is the responsibility of the parent to ensure that there is a space reserved with the school district for bus transportation to the Annex site each morning.
** A delayed opening cancels the Before School Care Program at that School.
Program Description: Students will be engaged in activities and playtime until it is time to be accompanied to their class line-ups.
Fee: $165/month - This program runs 5 days a week. There is not an option to register for a partial week.
