Top Before and Aftercare in Ossining New York
Before- and After-School enrichment program
for Kindergarten through 6th Grade
“Participants in high-quality after-school programs go to school more, behave better, receive better grades and perform better on tests compared to students who don’t participate in after-school programs, according to a study of 68 after-school programs conducted by the Afterschool Alliance.”
Enriching Before- and After-school care
How your children spend their free time matters more than you think! Our OCC school-age enrichment program offers before-school educational care and after-school enrichment for kindergarten through sixth graders every school day of the year. And in order to meet the needs of working parents, our program is open on most school holidays and school vacations.
Our school-age students engage in discovery-play activities, reading and book-related projects, hands-on science activities, arts and crafts, music, recreational and educational games, while also making time to get help with their homework. They also have access to and benefit from outdoor play on our large playground and sports field.
Busing is provided to and from the Ossining Public Schools.

Vacation and Holiday After and Before Care
We actively work with community partners, such as Teatown Lake Reservation, Jacob Burns Film Center and the Ossining Public Library, who bring a variety of resources to our students. From this, youngsters begin to develop life-long habits of balancing work with leisure in the important time before and after school each day.
Every day encourages a balance of:
Family-style breakfast, substantial afternoon snack, and lunch on school holidays and vacations
Physical activity in our outdoor play area
Help with homework
Down time

School’s out — but OCC is in!
