*Extended day campers will need to bring an additional snack.

Cost: $250 per week session

This camp is geared towards children between the ages of 3-6.

We will be offering an older kids’ camp option in tandem with our DS camp for ages 7-10.

Animal-loving child. Wishes to make friends but unsure on how to do so. A child who needs a safe environment and thrives on feeling loved and supported. A child who loves to play in nature and hug donkeys and go on tractor buggy rides.

In our program, we believe in not only the whole child in nature framework, but also the whole teacher approach. This means that as your child’s teacher, we also take on the role as their cheerleader, nurturer, therapist, and advocate! Our robust team of DS teachers stay on for the summer as well and hail from various backgrounds: early childhood, counseling, environmental science, and therapeutic riding.

We follow a 6:1 student teacher ratio to ensure optimal quality and care.

The camp class size ranges from 15-20 students per week with most students opting to do multiple weeks.

$750 for a one week session (Monday to Friday 9-3PM)

In fact, most of our campers enroll in multiple weeks because every SEL objective for each week is so pivotal to socio-emotional growth.

We will be using the Brightwheel app for all our students. Each day, you will receive intentional and multiple updates as to how your child is thriving in our summer program, which will be excellent conversation starters for the dinner table and ensure that you, as the parent, is part of your child’s journey!

Summer learning loss is indeed a phenomena that affects many students, to the point that it is referred to as the “summer setback” or “summer slide” or even “brain drain.” But learning shouldn’t stop in the summer; the real question is how do we make learning joyful and engaging while encouraging confidence and positive self-worth?

Enter in: Genius Squad. Every day of camp, your child will engage in small group academic enrichment with one on one support to reclaim the joy of summer learning, curated by Ms. Maggie herself who holds a Masters in Early Childhood education with a specialty in language and cognition. This enrichment will not take away from the magic of our SEL camp as it will happen during the RESET portion of the camp day for about 45-60 minutes.

‍Imagine this: Children take out their white boards and solve a mathematical story or engage in a math game, connecting mathematical concepts to real world applications. Children journal about their passions or dreams and experience the craft of writing as an organic, powerful means of self-expression and agency. Children ground themselves and enrich their literary souls with teacher-led read alouds or peer-to-peer book readings on the hill, by the goats, or the horses as their captive audience. No day will look the same, but the outcome will always be joy and igniting that spark of learning.
