K-Camp is specially designed to get children who have never attended preschool or need more time in a preschool setting ready for kindergarten in the fall. This half-day program is conducted by licensed teachers who use fun, engaging activities to improve literacy and social-emotional skills. Breakfast and lunch are provided and each student receives a free book each day.
In 2023, 82% of K-Campers demonstrated growth in literacy skills. In addition, the program served as early intervention for 48 campers who demonstrated a need for more intensive assistance as they began their academic career.
