Kindercamp

Provides school readiness to prepare incoming kindergartners who did not have the opportunity to attend preschool

Run in classrooms on an elementary school site each summer, KinderCamp students participate in a variety of learning opportunities focused on increasing skills in math, literacy, social interactions, problem-solving and cause/effect. Every day a child attends, the child returns home with a brand-new book. Children also receive a healthy lunch, participate in a weekly Kids Farmer’s Market and receive hygiene education.

Explore how KinderCamp prepares children for kindergarten through playful learning and family engagement.

Robert and I were both so nervous for him to start kindergarten. KinderCamp gave him the chance to be in a real classroom right here at Freeman Elementary School.
