The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic sparked an educational crisis. The sudden closure of schools in March 2020 and the shift to remote learning posed significant challenges, particularly for students from low-income, no-income, and disadvantaged households. When schools reopened in April 2022, many students had experienced academic and social regression, with many not performing at their expected age or grade levels.
KIND’s “Catch-Up” Summer Camp is designed to help students who have fallen behind academically. The camp targets students in Standards 1 to 3 from no-income or low-income families, providing the essential support needed for those struggling due to gaps in foundational knowledge. We understand that these gaps can hinder their progress at higher educational levels.
The camp focuses on key subjects such as literacy, numeracy, reading, and spelling, delivered under the guidance of an experienced Camp Supervisor. Students also receive much-needed individual attention, ensuring they get the help they need to thrive.
In addition to academic support, we offer a variety of non-academic activities like music, arts and crafts, dance, Spanish, sign language, baking, etiquette, and drama. These activities give students the opportunity to explore new skills and interests in a fun and supportive environment.
We invite companies to get involved with this vital program. It’s essential for our younger low-income students to receive the support they need to overcome their learning challenges and build a brighter future.
