YMCA Learning Camps
In partnership with UCSF Family Services, YMCA has launched Learning Camps specifically for UCSF families to help with distance learning this fall.
The morning program will include support for distance learning assigned by the school district and supplemental academic supports to help students who are under-performing in math and literacy. The afternoon will incorporate physical and enrichment activities such as STEAM.
Camps will be held in 4-week sessions with the first beginning on August 17, 2020.
Registration Dates
Registration for the current session is currently closed.
Registration for Session 3 (October 14 - November 6) opened on 9/23 for priority enrollment for current families and will open on 10/1 for enrollment for new families.
Spaces are limited, and registration is first come, first served. Additional sites may be added; we encourage you to register for the wait list if a site you are interested in is full.
Information about off-site YMCA learning camps can be found here.
