Learn, Grow, and Thrive with the Y

The Y is proud to partner with the Shoreline School District to provide high-quality, active learning opportunities designed to engage and expand young minds. Through our Before and After-School Enrichment (BASE) program, we provide a safe, caring, and fun environment where kids can participate in sports, arts, STEM, and other hands-on learning activities. 

Registration

BASE is a school year program that typically runs from September through June. Programs are flexible to meet your needs! Families may choose from programs before school, after school, or both and from one to five days per week.

2023-24 School Year

Registration for BASE programs in the 2023-24 school year is open now, with the exception of our new location at Syre Elementary which opens on June 1. 

2022-23 School Year

Online registration is closed, but you may sign up for BASE programs through our registration team. Please fill out this interest form and expect a minimum 72-hour response time. Many of our programs are full or have limited capacity. Typically, it will take 5-7 business days to fully complete your registration and required paperwork to begin care.

Non-School Days and Breaks

We offer full-day programs from 7:30 am - 5:30 pm during winter, mid-winter, and spring breaks and some other non-school days for an additional fee. These programs are just for families currently enrolled in BASE.

For the 2022-23 school year, register here.  For the 2023-24 school year, registration will open in the summer or early fall.

2023-24 School Year Fees per Week

Fees are reflective of the hours that kids are in BASE, may vary by district and school, and may be adjusted once school schedules and bell times are finalized by the school district. Upon registration, you will be charged a $75 registration fee. Weekly payments will begin on the Saturday before care.

Receive a 10% discount if you enroll in full-time care from Monday-Friday in the morning and afternoon.
