  • frequent handwashing breaks and hand sanitizer readily available

Preschool summer camp is offered each week for half and full-day options:

    • half day $150
    • full day $250

Any week that multiple classes are scheduled (i.e. Archery + Chess, etc), there are 3 pricing options:

    • half day only one class – as listed below for each camp class
    • full day 1 class+STAES Summer Fun Camp $250
    • full day 2 classes $300

Earlycare will be 7:30a.m.-9:00a.m. and Aftercare is 4:00p.m.-5:30p.m. if you need to drop your camper off before camp starts or pick them up after camp ends.

    • Pre-registration for both Early and Aftercare is $50/week
