"I loved how staff were able to make the camp experience both fun and educational. My son looked forward to camp every day and had completely changed his opinion on reading! He has started choosing independent reading time over time on his tablet. We are so pleased with his growth in the past three weeks." — Angela Mayes, Parent

Reading & Writing Camp

Reading and Writing camp is for campers with or without a Dyslexia or Dysgraphia diagnosis. Campers receive rigorous, small group and individualized reading and writing instruction that will help them retain and improve skills over the summer. Certified special education teachers and reading specialists will implement research-based programs including Orton-Gillingham literacy approaches, Step Up to Writing, and other proven interventions tailored to the unique learning needs of each camper. Campers will receive 1:1 tutoring each day to improve phonics, fluency, reading comprehension, or writing skills. The parent chooses one area to focus on during individual instruction time.

Executive Function & Study Skills Camp

Certified instructors will help participants improve organization, memory, initiation, study skills, focus, and other executive function skills.

Social & Emotional Skills Camp

Grade Level: Entering K-8
Ratio: 6:1 campers to staff

Campers of all ages will learn social and emotional regulation and self-expression skills that are necessary for making and keeping friends. They will practice new skills taught from a research-based curriculum, during fun and interactive group activities that focus on the camp session theme. Campers will be encouraged to participate in activities outside of camp with other participants.

The Ultimate Camp Experience

Grade Level: Entering K-8
Ratio: 8:1 campers to staff

When campers participate in a morning camp and they just want to have fun the rest of the day, they can enroll in this Ultimate Camp Experience for their afternoon camp. This camp offers an exciting traditional summer camp experience within a small camper to staff ratio and with staff who understand children who learn differently. Fun activities will focus on the camp session theme and every Friday campers will participate in special activities that will enrich their camp experience.

Full-Day Camp Adventure

Mix and match two half-day specialty camps for a full-day camp experience. When campers choose a morning and afternoon camp for a full-day experience, campers stay for a supervised lunch and an unstructured playground break from 11:00 to noon at no additional fee. Campers must bring a lunch that does not require refrigeration or the microwave. Water is provided as a drink.
