Our NYC Kids Camps 8’s & 9’s program is designed for children 8-10 years of age. Children are presented with many opportunities to build necessary social, emotional, and critical thinking classroom skills in a positive and supportive environment with a small group setting. We introduce exciting summer themes and studies that offer an out of the box approach to creativity and cognition. We are committed to small group sizes and individualized attention so children feel secure to become engaged and self-motivated learners. This program is the perfect way to prepare your child for a pre-k/kindergarten setting during the school year. If you are registered for a half-day program and would like to add our accredited Think Tank Program from 12:30pm-1:15pm, please email us at admin@perryschool.com for details and pricing information.
