Free YMCA Membership for 7th Graders
The YMCA of Greater Brandywine offers all Chester County seventh graders a free membership. As kids face adolescence challenges, they are more likely to begin distancing themselves from formal organizations, friends and family and to experiment with unhealthy behaviors. The 7th Grade Initiative offers an alternative where they can make new friends, discover their passions and develop a sense of belonging while pursuing their personal and educational goals. Click below to learn more.
A special thank you to one of our 7th grade parents for sharing this information with us! |
