Questions
Do you
pro-rate tuition if my child is unable to attend a portion of
the camp?
No. The Summer
Academy program does not offer a reduced rate if a child misses
a portion of the program. However, parents may excuse their
child from attending due to a family vacation, emergency,
illness, other activities, etc. To excuse a child, the parent
notifies the lead teacher.

Street in Boise. When students arrive, they will be directed to
classrooms for morning activities.

Middle-Level Adventure Program students use their bikes
