  • We do not receive funding to offer summer camp, so camp funding is based on student fees. There is an option to request financial assistance, but assistance is not guaranteed.

  • Students signed up for both morning and afternoon activities will have a lunch and recess break from 12:00-1:00. Students must bring lunch from home.

  • Fridays will not be part of our regular camp activity schedule, but on-site activities will be available from 9:00-2:00 on Fridays.

  • Camps will be divided between students entering Kindergarten through 3rd grade and students entering 4th through 8th grade, with the exception of Kindergarten camp (only for rising Kindergarteners) and currently enrolled 8th graders who may join 4th-8th camps.

  • Once registration and camp schedules are finalized, fees will be charged through JMC (our student information system) and must be paid in advance via cash, check, or through JMC.
