2021-2022 Registration opens Monday, July 12th!!

Exploration and knowledge building are at the core of the Y’s Before & After School programming. Offered in a nourishing learning environment, we believe in creating a solid foundation for children who need support in order to succeed in school. This program and the Y are proud partners and Before & After School Care providers for the School City of Hobart School District and River Forest Community School Corporation.

The Before & After School Care program creates a safe, secure, stimulating and supervised environment for children before school which is NOW located at the Ridge View Elementary School building as early as 6:00 AM, and after school care (located at Joan Martin, Liberty, and Veterans Elementary Schools) until 6:00 PM. Children who attend Kindergarten will be transported to their home school after school. Elementary children (K – 5th Grade) have the opportunity to learn, thrive, and grow while having loads of fun. The program includes academic support: literacy enrichment, math enrichment, homework time, health and wellness activities, 21st Century Skills, socialization, character development, arts, organized games, music, leadership development, service-learning, global learning, and special events.

Register online. Pre-pay for your child’s non-refundable registration fee and choose which of the programs you want your child to attend. Registration is a two-step process. After completing the online information, please download the forms, complete ALL forms including the Child Immunization Record form and have it signed by a medical professional along with your child’s shot record and bring them to the Hobart Y.

Please allow two (2) business days AFTER your paperwork is turned into the YMCA front desk to be processed and before your child can start the program. We will contact you by telephone if your child can start before the two-day waiting period.

If you pay for a day or week and your child does not come, there will be no credits/refunds. For Fun Days, registration is due 7 days PRIOR  to the Fun Day.
