At your request, we have changed the time we open the doors in the morning to 6:15 a.m. I hope that this will give those of you who need a few extra minutes the time required to get your child settled at camp and go to your place of employment knowing that your child is being well cared for by our staff. We will be closed on Wednesday, July 4th. Most of our teaching staff are New Jersey certified teachers, as are many of our support staff personnel. Our staff is well trained in curriculum and classroom management, and all of them are creative, upbeat, and hard working. Cumberland County College’s Summer Academy for Kids is a program dedicated to providing students with a positive environment where they can expand their learning, gain life skills and develop lifelong friendships. Many classes have limited seating, so don’t wait too long. Childhood is the most beautiful of all life’s seasons! We look forward to providing your child with an educational and fun experience this summer.
