Elkton Summer Enrichment Camp!
Elkton is planning four fabulous weeks of K-12 summer school/camp experiences, and we'd like to gauge family interest before we get too deep into the planning process. Here is what we know so far: • Session 1: July 5-15; 4 days per week from 8:30-2:30 • Session 2: July 19-29; 4 days per week from 8:30-2:30 • Transportation and meals will be provided • K-8 summer enrichment camp will be based on a STEAM model designed to enrich skills and knowledge and will include activities related to science exploration with a natural resource focus, building and making, artistic expression, outdoor and athletic movement, and more! • HS summer school has two tracks: credit recovery for those who need catching up due to past failed classes, and credit enrichment for those who want to increase their skills and knowledge (and improve their GPA!). HS summer school will also include an element of summer camp fun for all students! Please fill out the survey below to help us begin planning. We will send out more details .
