students to the YMCA Bedford Center. Once they are at the YMCA, children enjoy a healthy snack, homework or quiet

games, time in our gym or swimming pool and other fun activities supervised by our staff. The After School

Program follows the school calendar and runs on normal school days. On most early dismissal days, the After School

Program will start at the early dismissal time and run until our normal dismissal time of 6:00pm. The After School

Program has several schedule options to accommodate your family’s schedule. You can chose between 2, 3, 4 or 5 days

a week, but we ask that your child consistently attends the same days each week.

VACATION DAYS

Vacation Days are for children in grades K-5 and take place from 7:30am-6:00pm on most days when Westport Schools

are not in session. Children will participate in swimming, gym games, go on a field trip, watch a movie and other fun
