JCare & J All Day
JCC of Youngstown provides a safe and fun learning environment for school aged children enrolled in grades K-8 at Akiva Academy and surrounding school districts. We believe that children’s daily lives should consist of positive reinforcement, socio-emotional development and learning, creativity, and individuality. Students will enjoy healthy snacks, participate in enrichment activities, and receive homework assistance. For more information contact Director of Youth & Camping Services Amber Shrawder at 330.746.3250 ext. 177 or ashrawder@jewishyoungstown.org.
