During the 2020-21 school year, St. Anthony de Padua Catholic school will continue its partnership with the YMCA of Greater Michiana to provide childcare before school and after school (Y-Club).

The YMCA of Greater Michiana staff will supervise children on the St. Anthony de Padua campus for the Y-Club Extended Care (Before and After Care) Program, while providing quality programming and supervision by their staff trained in childcare. 

All day to day operations of the Y-Club Extended Care Program (including scheduling, programming, staffing, billing, and general management of the Y-Club program) will be handled by the YMCA of Greater Michiana. This service, while administered by the YMCA of Greater Michiana, will be provided on St. Anthony's campus and will only be available to St. Anthony students. The administrators of the YMCA of Greater Michiana Y-Club program are committed to partnering with our administration to ensure expected behaviors and values are aligned.

The YMCA will be providing care for students during our school closure. Care will be provided from 8 am to 6 pm at the YMCA/O'Brien Center located at 321 East Walter Street, South Bend, In 46614. 

The cost will be $25.00 a day per participant. Payments must be made before the child can attend care. A payment method will be required to be put on file. Payments will be collected the day before care.

If you have any questions please reach out, as well as registration forms can be completed and sent to Maycie Wise at  mwise@ymca.org.

Participants will be required to have a registration form on file with the YMCA that includes the child's health and other detailed information. You can download the registration form from the link ( click here) or fill a form out on your first day of arrival.
