I heard the gvmt is offering free daycamp for all kids Nursery-12. Even kids from private schools.
Anyone have more details?!
How come my kids day cAnp is still charging regular full price like last year??
I heard all staff are going to be paid through the program. So what do we need to still pay so much for? Banging head

Where are you pulling your information from if your own camp doesn't have that info?

They are not offering free camp. They are offering free summer school to all NYC students, even private school children. It is to help kids catch up due to the pandemic. But they will be placed in a local public school program and not kept in a strictly religious program. If you want them in an environment only with other frum kids you'll still have to pay for camp.

Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense

Could be a great alternative for families who can't afford day camp, if enough families do it. Only there won't be fun activities there and plenty of studying. Doubt kids will be happy...

But I heard a few day camps are doing a program... The counselors are getting paid very nicely through the gvmt, as Title 1. So is it like summer schools? They don't have to pay the counselors Bec it's going to legally be catapult/title 1

Don’t know too much about this, but for years there’s been a youth Corp program where the counselors in the NYC day camps get paid thru the govt.. how is this different?
