ENHANCING YOUR CHILD’S SCHOOL DAY
We have changed our plan to match the school hybrid schedule this fall. We’ve got you covered. Helping elementary school-age children reach their potential.
Program Dates & Times:
- We generally follow Marion City Schools (MCS) and Pleasant Local Schools calendars. The programs are offered Monday – Friday.
- Before school care: starting 6:45 am – Until school bus picks up at the Y. MCS will pick up for George Washington & Benjamin Harrison. Pleasant picks up for Pleasant Elementary.
- After school care: until 6:00 pm – Arrival at Y by MCS bus from George Washington & Benjamin Harrison or from Pleasant.
- Full-Day Care: 6:45 am – 6:00 pm – Will be offered while school districts operate on a hybrid in-school model due to COVID-19.
Location & Transportation:
- The program is currently located at the Marion Family YMCA at 645 Barks Road East. We’re working with community partners on an alternative location if demand is greater than what we can accommodate at the Y.
- Benjamin Harrison (BH) and George Washington (GW) students: transportation from the Y to BH / GW and from BH / GW to the Y is provided by Marion City Schools. Transportation to & from BH / GW is available for students in grades K through 5 only. Parents should inform the school that their child is attending Y School Age Child Care (SACC).
- Pleasant students: The Y building is in the Pleasant School District. Pleasant parents will need to complete a babysitting form in their school office indicating the Y as their pick up / drop off location.
Program Fees:
- Fees must be paid the Friday in advance through automatic draft. If you have opted out of the automatic draft, there is an additional $5 fee per child per week. Your child is considered enrolled until you withdraw and fees are due regardless of attendance (exception for COVID-19 illness or quarantine).
- We are now offering a Sibling Program Discount (25% Off) which cannot be combined with our in-house Financial Assistance discount.
- Financial Assistance with fees is available based on household size & income. More information is available at marionymca.org/financialaid/
