Kindergarten is a wonderful time for all kids and we want to help make sure your child is ready to begin his or her journey! Campers will practice reading skills, try fun activities, and learn to work as a group throughout the week. This is a great way to expose little learners to the daily structures and routines of Kindergarten. This camp will be led by JCDS Kindergarten Teacher Amanda Yarberry.
