Harker’s KinderCamp introduces a classroom routine that prepares children for a successful transition into kindergarten.
KinderCamp
Kindergarten is specially designed to prepare children for entering school in the fall. Mornings are filled with readiness lessons in math, language arts, STEM and art. Children are engaged in school-day routines, small-group instruction, hands-on centers and activities to further develop fine motor and social skills.
Weekly folders are sent home with newsletters and student work. No grades or report cards are issued.

Children entering kindergarten through grade 5 in fall 2025 are eligible. Campers must be at least 5 years old by Sept. 1, 2025, and must speak and understand English at their grade level. Academic classes in our K-5 program are designed as enrichment and not as remedial or accelerated programs. International students are welcome to apply; however, they must complete an additional recommendation form and may be required to participate in an interview to assess their English proficiency to ensure they can comfortably interact in our program environment.
