Overview

Need something for your child to do on school holidays and teacher workdays? Enroll in the Youth Escape School (YES) program. This wonderful recreational opportunity provides a safe alternative to children having to stay home while their parents work.

Participants interact with their peers and counselors in fun-filled activities such as sports, arts & crafts, games, movies, and various other exciting events. Each participant must bring a lunch, drinks, and 2 snacks and should dress for play including sneakers/athletics shoes.

Elections may impact site availability. Dates are based on the Wake County Public School System’s traditional school calendar. If the minimum registration requirements are not met for a specific date at a location, parents/guardians will be notified at least five days in advance and given the option to change locations or receive a full refund for that date.
