School Year Childcare

REGISTER FOR Y AFTER SCHOOL TODAY!

The YMCA of Virginia's Blue Ridge is excited to welcome students to our Y After School programs for the 2026-2027 school year! We serve families in Botetourt, Lexington, Roanoke City, Roanoke County, Rockbridge County and Salem.

We believe the skills learned today become the foundation for a lifetime. Through our enriching curriculum, children are encouraged to explore their unique talents, spark new interests, and discover their full potential in a supportive environment.

Financial Assistance: Virginia DSS Assistance is available. If you do not qualify for DSS assistance, the YMCA is a non-profit charitable organization that provides scholarships for those unable to pay the standard rate. Click here to learn more and apply.
