Camp Kindergarten ~ Aug 18th-21st

Camp Kindergarten is a 4-day event, running from 9-12 each day. You are able to select as many or as few days as needed, but we recommend sending your student for all four days if possible!
This event will include light academics; however, the primary focus of this event is to help get students comfortable with the school, with the teachers, and with their peers! They will rotate between two classrooms. Each classroom will have 2 of our kinder teachers in it. The first half of the morning will be either reading or math-related, followed by an extended snack and recess (snack is provided by us, however, if your student has any allergies, please send special snacks for them). The second half of the morning is the other content area (whatever one they didn’t do in the morning). We will walk students out to the pick-up area at 12:00 where parents can either drive up or walk up to pick up their child!
