Program Mission Statement
This program is based on the principles of the YMCA: improving the health of mind, body, and spirit. The YMCA Programs are held at elementary schools throughout Waltham where we act as mentors and role models for elementary students.
Program Description
Most YMCA Afterschool Programs are divided into youngers, middles, and olders. These three groups require different activities and help in different areas. Some activities include reading stories to the youngers, hosting leadership workshops with the olders and/or helping the middles with homework. Bentley students act as assistants to the YMCA staff and help them with any activities already planned as well as providing ideas for additional activities.
