A FUN SUMMER CAMP PROGRAM FOR GRADES K-5
A N I S D 7 2 8 C O M M U N I T Y E D U C A T I O N P R O G R A M
Welcome to EdVenture Club-Summer!EdVenture Club-Summer is an exciting and engaging summer camp program for students who have completed Kindergarten through fifth grade by June 2019. EdVenture Club-Summer provides weekly mini-camps five days a week throughout the summer months and is conveniently located at: Hassan, Meadowvale, Otsego, Parker, Rogers, Twin Lakes and Zimmerman Elementary schools. EdVenture Club-Summer features both full-time and part-time options. Full-time allows your child to attend our program five days a week from 6:00am to 6:00pm. Part-time allows you to plan your child’s care around your schedule. Youth will experience fun projects, hands-on learning, a weekly field trip and recreational activities while strengthening relationships in a structured, caring environment.
Who can attend EdVenture Club-Summer?Students in public or private schools, in-district or out-of-district...everyone is welcome! Children must have completed grades K, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 by June 2019. Why EdVenture Club-Summer and not daycare?The benefits of EdVenture Club-Summer include taking advantage of weekly field trips to exciting places, sharing time with friends of the same age, new learning experiences, recreation activities and use of school facilities. EdVenture Club-Summer also qualifies as a tax deduction. Why attend EdVenture Club-Summer full-time, 5 days a week?EdVenture Club-Summer is an amazing experience for kids. Each week features a different mini-camp and a field trip that is included in the full-time price. Children benefit from five days a week because they experience a fuller curriculum with hands-on experiences. They also have opportunities for connecting with friends, choice time and endless opportunities with our “activity boxes.” As a bonus, when you sign up for a full week (more than six hours/day) the average daily rate is less than the part-time daily (less than six hours/day) rate. What is the benefit of using EdVenture Club-Summer part-time?Using EdVenture Club-Summer part-time is a flexible option to meet a family’s needs and is built to fit around your schedule. You can choose 1-5 days per week and choose six hours or less per day for $25/day, or more than six hours a day for $36/day; fees include the weekly field trip if attending on the day of the field trip. Is your student attending summer Targeted Services or Special Ed-ESY? Our part-time EdVenture Club-Summer option conveniently wraps around their schedule. Tell me about your staff...All of our staff are ISD 728 School District employees who have gone through a comprehensive background check. In addition, they are CPR and First-Aid trained and have received numerous hours of training on child development, social skills, special-needs and more.
Our staff are also selected because they truly enjoy working with children and are welcoming, caring individuals who encourage connections with other children as well as other staff.
What if my child has special needs?Please indicate on the Family Information Form or online student profile any special needs of your child such as health or medical concerns, allergies, medications, etc., and if your child has an IEP or receives special services during school.
