ELEMENTARY SUMMER CAMP 2015
Please find enclosed our summer application. The Summer Programs begin June 8th, 2015.
Please enroll for the weeks you wish your child to attend.
Summer enrollment requires a 1/3 deposit with all applications to be applied to the last
weeks of enrollment. Families are financially responsible for all weeks enrolled. This policy
will ensure full summer enrollment to meet our summer budget and staffing demands. Tuition
is due each Monday.
Our Primary program is offered to children ages 4 to 6 or students who have completed one

in the fall will remain with their classmates in the Primary Camp.
Our Elementary Camp is for children ages 7 to 12, who have completed one year of AMS
Elementary School or the first grade in a public school system. If your child attends our
Elementary Summer Program you will be notified of field trips that may require a 3:15 pickup. Please notify the staff if you have prior appointments that would conflict with fieldtrips.
Once we receive your summer application and deposit, acceptance is automatic unless we
are full for a particular week. In the event we do not have an opening for summer weeks
requested, you will be contacted immediately. Please contact the office if you wish to be on
a Wait List for specific weeks that may be full.
Thank you for your support of our summer programs! Please contact us if you have any
further questions.
