Tuition will be drafted on a monthly basis, 14 days prior to the start of each month from a debit, credit or savings account you have on file with the Y. All registration options are five days a week. Tuition has been adjusted to account for in-service, holidays, teacher set-up and clean-up times, etc. For your convenience, we have averaged the yearly tuition over the school year so your monthly tuition payments are predictable.

The goal of the Ashland Family Y is to provide preschoolers with a strong foundation for their elementary years. Some features of our program include:

• A curriculum that allows for dramatic and imaginative play, art, movement, science, math, and more.
• Skill development in academic concepts of literacy and math, such as counting, coloring, and letter recognition, cognitive problem-solving skills, and developing large and fine motor skills, such as walking in a line and using a pencil.
  Students will learn and practice social and school-readiness skills, such as making friends and acceptance of others, sharing, and taking turns.
• A program philosophy that promotes active learning that incorporates acceptance and diversity.
