For the safety of everyone in the school, if your child exhibits any symptoms detailed in our COVID-19 Health and Safety below, you will be contacted, your child will be isolated, and you must pick up your child within 30 minutes. Be sure you have an emergency contact available for any emergency pick up each day your child is in camp.
