K-8 Summer Day Camp

MORNING 9:00 A.M. – 11:30 A.M. (MONDAY-THURSDAY)

In the mornings, students participate in a variety of activities in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics, and study skills. Each child will be placed in a class by current grade level. 

Students going into Kindergarten–4th grade will be reviewing concepts taught throughout the year to reinforce their learning and continue to master their understanding in reading, writing, and mathematics to help them prepare for the next grade level. Supplies needed are pens, pencils, paper, and crayons.

Students going into 5th–8th grade will be assisted in completing their required summer reading projects during 1st session academics. They will read the novel together, discuss annotations, and be guided towards completing their reading projects. There will also be a strong emphasis in reinforcing mathematical concepts to prepare them for the upcoming school year. Students will be provided the required reading novel when they attend summer school, but we ask that they arrive on the first day with pens, pencils, and paper.

AFTERNOON 11:30 A.M. – 4:00 P.M. (MONDAY-THURSDAY)

Students will eat lunch that they brought from home, as there is no hot lunch service provided in the summer. Then, they will participate in a variety of fun on- and off-campus activities. Some of these activities include going to the park, seeing a movie, bowling, going to Round 1, visiting Hacienda Pizza Co., playing laser tag, and more.

ALL-DAY EVENT (FRIDAY)

On Fridays, summer day camp students get the excitement of an all-day trip with no academics in the morning. These full-day events include going to John’s Incredible Pizza, Adventure City, Boomers, Dave & Buster's, the Discovery Cube, Camelot Golfland, and Medieval Times. Students will travel by bus for all the off-campus trips.

*Note: Snack and Lunch are not included. No fast food or delivery services are allowed. Your child must bring a reusable water bottle and lunch every day. All students must travel on the bus for the trips.

Students in mandatory summer school due to low grade point averages will be the only group that will receive letter grades. These students must earn a 2.0 grade point average for the session and must turn in 100% of their homework on time if they wish to return to St. Mark’s in the fall.
