The committee works to fill gaps in services by keeping the Y connected to the School Board of Broward County and effectivly coordinating resource sharing. To date, the committee has addressed issues such as:
The volunteer group that make up our Y Parent Advisory Committee plays an active role in providing the insight, direction, and feedback on Y programs and services. The input given helps us determine best practices and strives for continued improvement.
The Y is an active participant on every school’s SAC/PTA committee because we believe in the power of partnership. We promote the meetings in our after-school programs to encourage parents to join their school’s committees and show their support for new initiatives and special events. Annually, the Y supports & sponsors special events such as Family Literacy Night, talent shows, FCAT pep rallies, staff appreciation luncheons and Family Fitness Events.
Getting kids reacquainted with fun and fitness is the goal of YFit. YFit engages our kids in a full hour of high-quality moderate to vigorous physical activity in a safe environment. Students will learn about nutrition education and creating life-long healthy eating habits. YFit utilizes the SPARK evidence-based physical activity curriculum to create positive physical activity experiences for every child. YFit meets the four Sunshine State physical education standards.
The Y-Times highlights noteworthy after-school news, upcoming special events, provides links to free or low cost community resources, helpful tips on ways to improve children's health and wellness, creative self expression and academic performance.
