As of Sep 13, 2026, Enrollercoaster tracks 15 enrichment and STEM programs for teens in Brooklyn, from 3 providers including NYC Parks, Dodge YMCA, and Greenpoint YMCA. 7 are open for registration right now, and the rest are closed or not yet reporting a status. 2 programs are listed as free. 13% of the programs with a published schedule meet on a Saturday or Sunday; the rest are weekday-only.
Prices. Across the 4 programs that publish a price, the typical (median) listed price is $35; nearly all are listed at that price. Providers list prices differently — a single class, a month, or a full term — so compare the registration pages, not just the number.
Ages. Every program here accepts at least part of the teens range (ages 12–17); the list leads with the classes built for this age and finishes with those that only touch it at the edge.
Where the open spots are. By neighborhood, the most enrichment and STEM programs for teens with open registration today are in Brooklyn Heights (4 open), Greenpoint (2 open), and Red Hook Recreation Center (1 open). Neighborhood counts change daily as providers open and close sessions.
Teen programs (12 to 17) are fewer than for younger kids but more serious: competitive teams, advanced-level classes, pre-professional tracks and fitness programs. Many run by tryout or placement rather than open enrollment, and several of the providers listed here also take teens into their adult beginner classes, which is worth asking about when a teen class is full.
7 of the 15 enrichment and STEM programs for teens we track in Brooklyn are open for registration as of Sep 13, 2026. Status is read from each provider's own registration system every morning.
The typical listed price is $35, and most of the 4 priced programs fall between $35 and $35. Prices are as published by each provider and may cover one session, a month or a full term. 2 programs are free.
Usually yes, if the child's age falls inside the range the provider publishes. On this page the classes built specifically for ages 12–17 are listed first; those that only overlap the edge of the range come last, so check the age chip on each card.
Today the most open enrichment and STEM programs for teens are in Brooklyn Heights (4 open), Greenpoint (2 open), and Red Hook Recreation Center (1 open). These counts are recomputed every morning.
The largest by number of programs are NYC Parks (9), Dodge YMCA (4), and Greenpoint YMCA (2). 3 providers in total have enrichment and STEM programs for teens listed in Brooklyn.
