Summer Camp 2013

Summer Camp serves as both a bridge to and an extension of our signature Primary and Level K programs. All of our students, Primary through Level 8 Graduates, can continue to learn in our safe environment with our fabulous facilities and Faculty while taking part in the spectacular fun of summer at Turning Point.

Session Two Information


FRIENDS OF TURNING POINT FAMILIES

We are excited to announce that Turning Point Summer Camp will open its program to other children from our community who have been recommended by a Turning Point family. Any child, Level 3 through Middle School, is encouraged to apply for enrollment this summer. The registration period for Friends of Turning Point families begins March 15, 2013.


INFORMATION FOR NEW INCOMING PRIMARY AND LEVEL K STUDENTS

Intro-DUCK-Tion (June 11-21, or June 24-July 5)

Intro-DUCK-Tion is highly recommended for all incoming Primary students. Intro-DUCK-Tion is structured similarly to our Primary Division which features Montessori materials and other daily activities, all of which are presented in a fun and engaging manner. This class gives each student the opportunity to phase-in for a longer period of time to provide the most comfortable transition to Turning Point School.

Stepping Stones (June 11-21, or June 24-July 5)

Stepping Stones serves as a transitional, community-building experience for our first-year, Level K students. The class offers age-appropriate educational and developmental experiences and serves as a valuable in-road to our Elementary program. The thoughtfully designed offering is highly recommended for all incoming Level K students.

We highly recommend incoming Primary and Level K students to continue their Turning Point Summer Camp experience in Session Two as the work we do during that time is crucial to a healthy and easy transition in September.


COUNSELOR IN TRAINING FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS

Turning Point is thrilled to announce an expanded Counselor in Training Program that allows our Middle School students the opportunity to work and to play at Summer Camp during Session Two. Students will participate in our exceptional program while working with our Faculty and Staff to help care for our younger students. Tuition for students entering Levels 6 and 7 is $100 per week. For students entering Level 8, the program is free.
