Camp K
Camp K is a program offered by HCDE to incoming kindergarten students. Camp K will be offered June 5th-June 30th. The goal is to enroll incoming kindergarten students who have never experienced an early education program and students who would benefit from additional time in a school setting. Students will experience "school" in a smaller classroom before joining the other students in August. Hamilton County will provide lunch and a snack each day. Please fill out the form if you are interested in this program for your child. Please note that Camp K class size is capped at 15 students and attendance each day is expected. We will send more information as we receive it. Official registration will be first come first served basis.
IF YOU PLAN ON SENDING YOUR CHILD TO CAMP K, PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP FOR A SCREENER TIME SLOT. WE WILL SCREEN CAMP K CHILDREN DURING CAMP K.

We are looking forward to a great 2023-2024 school year. You will watch your child grow so much. They will learn to read, write sentences, add, subtract and problem solve. It will be a very exciting adventure!
In order for this to be a successful school year, communication is key. We encourage you to be involved in your child’s education at home and at school. Please work on building independence and the tasks listed on this Kindergarten Readiness Checklist.
