SCHOOL'S OUT IN PERSON CAMPS
What's School's Out Camp??
Kids love days off but we know it can be a logistical nightmare for parents! For the first time, DiF will be running one-day camps on two school's out days: President's Day and MLK Day.​
We'll have a topic of the day, a field trip to learn about the topic in depth, and then we'll enjoy the day with debate games and activities. Your kiddos will learn, have a blast, and it's one less thing for you to figure out!
