August is National Back-to-School Month. To prepare, the YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit is sharing three ways you can make your back-to-school season a success!
Enroll in Afterschool Programming Today
When school is out, the Y is in! In honor of National Back to School Month, the Y wants to remind you of all our great after-school programming to ensure your child is cared for after their school day! Visit https://ymcadetroit.org/programs/child-care/afterschool-care/ to learn more.
Communicate Routines and Expectations
The Y wants your family to be prepared for back-to-school season! Here is your friendly reminder to make sure you have everything on your child’s classroom supply list, reset those summer bedtimes well before the big day, and communicate any changes in routine with the entire family. Here are some helpful back-to-school parent tips from both the Department of Education and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Here’s to a happy, healthy, and safe back-to-school season!
Help Our Schools & Students Stock Up!
From crayons to notebooks, many classrooms and the students who fill them need school supplies this time of year! In celebration of National Back to School Month, the YMCA invites you to our Back to School Bash. More details can be found at https://ymcadetroit.org/events/.
