WHAT IS K CAMP?

Kindergarten camp is a program offered to incoming kindergarten students enrolled at South St. Paul Public Schools to help your child have a smooth transition into our school community. We want to offer a free summer learning opportunity for children who are eligible to attend kindergarten in the fall of 2022. The program will be held at Lincoln Center Elementary and Kaposia Education Center. In order to keep the program free and available to all our families, there will be no transportation provided. You will be responsible for transporting your child to and from the program.

WHY K CAMP?

This program will help your child prepare for kindergarten. Classes are held in kindergarten classrooms at your child’s home school. Students will become comfortable in a kindergarten classroom and explore their elementary building while being introduced to a “mini” kindergarten schedule.
Students will also:

• Become familiar with their new school environment
• Learn about bus safety and lunch procedures
• Participate in circle time activities and morning meetings
• Interact with peers

HOW DO I REGISTER MY CHILD?

Enrollment is accepted at a first come first serve basis. Space is limited and classes may fill quickly. Please complete your registration as soon as possible.
