Summer Camp

A summer program for students 5-12 years old.

Summer camps provide an opportunity for children to interact with peers in a more relaxed and recreational setting. This can foster friendships, social skills, and a sense of community. While there is usually a schedule in place, however, summer camps often offer more flexibility than traditional school settings. This flexibility allows children to have a mix of structured activities and free play time. It's important to note that even during summer camp, the Promissory facilities continue to provide the essential care services they offer year-round, including work periods, meals, and nap times.
