Throughout the year, we offer enrichment activities during the After School Program. Activities vary from instructional sports to S.T.E.A.M activities.
Fall 2019 Enrichment options include:
- Soccer Shots: A great introduction to soccer! Activities are age-appropriate, and aim to improve children’s gross motor skills. Similarly, the program demonstrates the value of teamwork and communication. The goal is simple: to leave a lasting and positive impact on every child served.
- Dance Expression: This program will run at two different times for PreK-2nd grade, and grades 3-5. Children are taught two variations of hip-hop, Urban, and House. Above all, children learn rhythm and movement while having fun! A small class recital is held in December.
- Amazing Athletes:Available for two age groups:
- Amazing Athletes (PreK-2nd grade): year-round developmental physical fitness program. Designed to empower children to reach developmental milestones at their own pace. Similarly, children learn the importance of patience, teamwork, and self-confidence. The environment is non-competitive and learning-based.
- Training Academy (Grades 3-5): A game-based sports program designed to engage older children in physical activity and wellness. Children are encouraged and inspired to do their personal best. In addition, skill development is prioritized over competition.This promotes more fun and individual improvement! Partner-based activities are also incorporated to advance teamwork.
Johnson Park students who attend the YWCA Princeton After School Program at Community Park will be transported to Community Park. They will be picked up at Johnson Park at the end of the day and will be dropped off at Community Park School. This service is provided by the Princeton School District Transportation Department.
