The New Kid’s Space @ PS24

We are so thrilled to present a brand new model of after school for the 2017-2018 school year at P.S. 24. We are now the exclusive provider of after-school services on-site at P.S. 24. We have exciting new changes, which will include more childcare options, increased enrichment opportunities and enhanced academic support.

So What’s New?

The Riverdale Y Family & Youth team has forged an unprecedented partnership with P.S. 24 staff and the After School Parent Committee. As a result of this, Kid’s Space @ PS 24 will offer:

Homework teacher for each grade level (NYC certified teachers).
A study guide room for children who need additional academic support.
A choice of 1 or 2 physical, creative, and academic enrichment options every day.

Classes will be taught by quality instructors from P.S. 24, The Riverdale YM-YWHA and our trusted partners.
