Elementary Program

The Elementary Program is the best of the school day put into a week-long experience. Students will spend the warm summer hours both inside the classroom and outside enjoying the sun. On a typical day, you will find students playing learning games that reinforce math skills, reading their favorite books, and using their imaginations to problem-solve new creations in art and STEM. Each day is filled with opportunities for social-emotional support and fun projects led by a fantastic staff of certified RPS teachers. Last but not least, a well-deserved snack and recess break outside for grade-level students provides time for play and exercise.

For our rising K students, we have a program called Jump Start to Kindergarten that will include all the elements above, as well as an emphasis on skills that will support the transition to our kindergarten classrooms.
