Our Summer Program
WHAT IS YOUTH VILLAGE SUMMER PROGRAM?
Our summer programs are for children ages 2 – 14. We have a preschool summer classroom and a school-age summer classroom. We have one 2-year-old summer classroom. We have one 3-year-old summer classroom for children entering VPK for the 2026-2027 school year. We have one K4 summer classroom for children entering kindergarten for the 2026-2027 school year. Our school-age summer classroom are for children currently enrolled in school. All four summer classrooms are developmentally appropriate and to get the children prepared for next school year. Its purpose is to educate children in a fun way!
WHAT MAKES YOUTH VILLAGE SUMMER PROGRAM DIFFERENT?
We limit our enrollment so that every child is known to the staff and volunteers and has his/her own special place in our hearts! We are not a “big-box” program but a “family-oriented,” “feel-good-and-safe” after school program and summer program!
Youth Village has been a part of the community since 1999 and several of our original Youth Village students continue today as volunteers or staff members. We are truly a “family-oriented” after school program and summer program!
