Member Testimonials
I am currently taking the EnhancedFitness class with Lee Benton. It is Excellent. she is also very energetic and conducts a fun enjoyable class.
I also swim once a week.
Scotty always has great activities planned for the kids!
My son absolutely loves going to the after-school program every day. He gets to play sports like baseball and basketball, make new friends, and stay active instead of being on screens all day. I’ve noticed he comes home happy, more confident, and excited to go back the next day.
I trust the staff completely. The program is very nice, clean, and safe, which gives me peace of mind as a parent.
I love Ms. Grace and Ms. Tina! Thank you so much for making the YMCA after school program a fun place to play! Love, First name removed N

From Clara:
"I look forward to going to the Y every day, because I love all the activities I get to do and how my teachers there are so nice and really care about me."
Scott Montefusco. He's a legendary counselor. He's been my son's after-school counselor for 2 years now, summer camp counselor as well. Very patient, friendly, great communicator and a great influence on Niko. The man is an absolute savage. ( in a good way )
Benjamin is very happy in the after school program thru the YMCA.
It's convenient in that he doesn't have to physically leave the school premises at the end of the school day, and he leaves there happy.
He enjoys the time spent playing in the gym and the Playgrounds with his classmates and new friends.
The staff are all very caring and treat the children like their own. I feel good knowing he is spending time there
We really appreciate the staff at SES after school. We know our child is engaged, having fun, and well looked after and most importantly, he enjoys going!
Daughter comes home happy! Seems to be engaged and have fun!
we absolutly love the ELC! both of our sons have attended since they were babies; our eldest is now in kindergarten and thriving because of the program. the ELC programs have instilled emotional regulation, a curiosity for learning, and a safe, fun environment for our kids! our youngest has another year left and we are so happy knowing he will get even more out of the program. and the teachers are ALL amazing which is very rare. the ELC program is not glorified babysitting - it's genuine education for our litle ones! and, the fact that our children have exposure to swimming, gymnastics, emotional support sessions, and sports mania is an incredible bonus. we cannot say enough positive things about the ELC. thank you!
Thank you to Ryan (Glover school) for getting to know our very active kiddo and keeping him engaged and active afterschool each day! We know it is not always easy but we greatly appreciate Ryan's dedication this year. It has been a great year thanks to Ryan!
It has her engaged and wanting to attend the program! They also let them have independency while still guiding them appropriately. I can definitely see her growth.
We just want to thank Virgil for being supportive and flexible with Theo. This is the first year Theo has asked to go to the Y and I know he really enjoys the activities. Thank you!
Shout out to Scotty and the entire team at Brown for being flexible and supportive with Jack & Aidan. We really appreciate it and the boys love going to the Y!
My daughter always comes home with a smile! She loves the different activities and how attentive the staff are. As a parent, it’s reassuring to know she is being well cared for.
Thank you to Kathleen and all the staff at Y After School at SES!
We are so grateful to Scotty and the Brown After School team for all the support, encouragement, and care they’ve shown to Rowan over the past few years.

The Afterschool staff at Brown are wonderful. JT talks about Scottie all the time, and loves their secret handshake. I'm grateful the staff help with homework, takes some pressure off at home.

The variety of options
Scotty and many staff members run the Brown afterschool program that my daughter attends. She loves going and always has stories of the fun things they do there. I appreciate the thoughtfulness that goes into the mix of structured and unstructured activities and the communication that the staff provides. We feel very lucky to have the Y staff supporting after school!
