About the school

The teachers and staff of Y Afterschool @ Lake Forest Elementary, a high quality early childhood center in Sandy Springs, are passionate about creating nurturing and engaging educational experiences that will spark a lifelong love of learning. At Y Afterschool @ Lake Forest Elementary, educators offer opportunities for students to develop productive independence in both academic and life skill spheres. Y Afterschool @ Lake Forest Elementary has met the qualifications to become a licensed childcare provider in the state of Georgia. This means staff must offer students a variety of learning experiences including a balance of quiet time and active engagement and an array of individual, small, and large group activities. The smaller learning environment at this school provides a more individualized educational experience and creates opportunities for students to form lasting friendships with their peers.
