Becker EAC YMCA After-School Program
Located on-site at Becker Elementary, the Extend-A-Care YMCA program provides a seamless transition from the school day to a supportive after-school environment. The curriculum is built around Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and the CATCH physical activity program, ensuring students remain active and engaged. The program leverages the unique campus facilities, including the Green Classroom and garden spaces, to foster a joyful and inclusive atmosphere. Managed by the Greater Austin YMCA, this program emphasizes youth development with a staff trained in childcare and safety. Students benefit from a structured schedule that includes afternoon snacks, outdoor play, and a variety of enrichment activities. The partnership with Becker Elementary allows for a strong community feel, supporting the school's dual-language mission and providing a convenient, affordable solution for local families needing care until 6:15 PM or later during the school year-round calendar.
