About Us

What makes CAMP unique?

• Through multi-age classes we can meet students at students’ developmental levels.

• Holistic Approach - Freedom and Flexibility to teach to the whole child, through 3 R’s and sciences, arts, field trips, etc.

  • Arts, Sciences, Outdoor Learning, and Field trips are valued as sources of authentic learning and inspiration, and are valued as much as Language Arts and Math.

  • Teachers will use best practices in teaching literacy and math, and will provide rigorous instruction to children at their individual levels.

• Restorative Justice practices, putting repairing harm done to relationships and people over and above the need for assigning blame and dispensing punishment.

  • No rewards/punishments for behavior

  • Building Community

• Free Play is part of Daily Curriculum (not linked to behavior and not including recess)

  • K-2 - Average of 50 min per day

  • 3-5 - Average of 30 min per day
