Programs and classes are organized by grade level:
Junior Clubhouse for Kindergartners
The Junior Clubhouse environment is designed specifically for Kindergarten-aged children. When the children arrive, they are greeted by a staff of early childhood educators and college students with a 1:5 staff to student ratio. Monday through Friday, high school volunteers may also provide the Noar staff with assistance in the clubhouse.
When children are not participating in a class, they are able to relax and play games with friends and counselors in Junior Clubhouse, which acts as their "home base." Weather and schedule permitting, Junior Clubhouse uses 92Y's well-equipped play terrace for outdoor time. Snacks are provided twice daily.
Clubhouse I for 1st graders; Clubhouse II for 2nd graders and Clubhouse III for 3rd & 4th graders
When children arrive, they are greeted by a staff of early childhood educators, graduate & college students and with a 1:7 staff to student ratio. Monday through Friday, high school volunteers may also provide the Noar staff with assistance in the clubhouse.
Children take classes offered through our various 92Y departments or may choose from a selection of Noar exclusive classes (tuition varies by option). Enrichment Class offerings consist of classes in sports, art, dance, music and other specialized classes. All children are accompanied to their classes and picked up from class by a counselor.
When children are not participating in a class, they play games and relax with friends and counselors in the Clubhouse, which acts as their "home base."
