Yip's After School Program

Yip's After School Program offers comprehensive and fun courses tailored to individual students' knowledge and interests in a wide range of academic subjects.

The need and demand for high quality after school programs in our community are tremendous. Too many children are unsupervised after school. Lack of supervision, structure, and academic opportunities can mean squandered opportunities for children to learn, and can leave young people vulnerable to trouble. Our After School Programs will help give children educational, safe, exciting places to spend their time after school.

Yip's After School Programs provide supervised mind enlightenment activities, language & academic enrichment curriculum, homework assistance, music, arts & crafts and recreation. The programs are open to all elementary students, together or individually.

We are proud our school has its own programs and is helping to better meet the needs of our students and their families. After school activities pay children's benefits. They improve children's grades and attitudes about learning. They give kids a chance to make new friends, and learn from caring mentors and adults. And they encourage parents to help improve their children's education and development.

Teachers report that students do better in school. And parents are thrilled to be able to spend quality time with their children in the evenings, because their homework was down with help from supervised tutors in the after school program.

The benefits are clear. Schools offering after school programs have seen a noticeable improvement in the students' grades, fewer disciplinary problems and higher attendance rates. Our hope is to be able to provide our children with a positive after school alternative.

The following classes are offered for an additional fee: Abacus, Ballet, Individual Piano or Violin Class, Advanced Art or Cartoon, Recreation Program
