Welcome to the YMCA Virtual Academic Programs – where learning and fun collide! YMCA TEAM UP provides free Afterschool Programs and Summer Camps to students in grades K-8 throughout Duval County.
The First Coast YMCA partners with Kids Hope Alliance, Duval County Public Schools and YMCA Tiger Academy to support K – 8th grade students with enrichment in Reading and Math, provided by state certified teachers, to increase student achievement and prevent learning loss during the summer. The YMCA then infuses enriched activities and exposures for a holistic approach – healthy spirit, mind and body – for student success in school and life.
