ELC Accordian
The Rye Y's Early Learning Center is led by a team of qualified professional directors. We select our passionate and dedicated staff for their experience, strong character, maturity, enthusiasm and commitment to our Y values. We pride ourselves on staff retention.
For 107 years, the Rye Y has been the vibrant and diverse heart of our community, welcoming families and individuals from across our area. From our first day camp in 1948 to our pre-school, school-age and camp programs of today, the Rye Y has given families peace of mind by providing safe, nurturing, affordable child care for 73 years.
The Creative Curriculum features inquiry, exploration and discovery as the foundation of learning. Our curriculum focuses on the following areas of development: social/emotional; physical; cognitive and language.
We believe children learn through spontaneity, problem solving, and exploring new materials to find answers - all while building positive relationships.
Children enrolled in the Early Learning Center will enjoy using Rye Y facilities including the gymnasium, swimming pool (for pre-school & pre-K) and outdoor playground and field.
At the Rye Y, we go beyond the curriculum to support the whole child. We have adopted HEPA (Healthy Eating and Physical Activity) standards and the CATCH program (Coordinated Approach to Child Health) to bring healthy eating, nutrition and physical activity into the classroom. Our goal is to help your child develop healthy lifelong habits and have fun at the same time!
Families will have access to the Bloomz app, either on their computer or mobile device. Through the app, we will keep you connected to your child's activities with posts and photos during the day.
