While having fun is important to us at Youth Enrichment Services’, so is your child’s education.  Each day, your child will have the opportunity with guidance from our staff to do his/her homework.  Parent feedback is crucial to a child’s education.  If you would like to have your child work on a specific project or a specific subject, please communicate that information to our staff and we will do what we can to accommodate.

WHAT NOT TO BRING (YES is not responsible for lost or stolen items)

We ask that children not bring any electronic devices such as toys, handheld games etc.  Items that your child does not want to lose should also remain at home. 

Schedules

Schedules are due by the 20^th of each month for the following month.  Schedules can be filled out at the 14^th Street Learning Center or www.youthenrichment.org.  If your child(ren)’s schedule is consistent, one schedule may be filled out and used for the entire school year. 

Extended Hours

The Extended Hours program provides licensed childcare for school age children, kindergarten through sixth grade on out of school days and most holiday breaks.  Care is provided at the 14^th St. Learning Center, Eastside Learning Center, YES Star Program, Brandon Elementary and Harrisburg’s Liberty Elementary.  The cost for this service is $20 per day per child if you preregister or $27 on the day of care. 

Vacation

Afterschool Enrichment families who are enrolled full-time will also accrue vacation hours each month.  Vacation hours must be requested in advance unless used for illness.  Families that are delinquent on their accounts will continue to accrue vacation hours but the hours may not be used until the account is current.  See Parent Handbook for details.

YES will be closed for Labor Day, Thanksgiving, the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day.  Please see Parent Handbook for more details.

Response:  Youth Enrichment Services absolutely refutes the comments provided by the Sioux Falls School District regarding its services.  YES’ hires the finest staff available and incorporates employment standards that are significantly higher than those required by the State of South Dakota.  Ongoing feedback demonstrates that parents consider YES programs to deliver the highest quality and practices available in afterschool programs.
