Camp Dynamic

Camps/Sessions/Birthday Parties/Parents' Night Out Camp Dynamic camp sessions are all about kids having a good, old fashioned camp experience complete with camp songs, games, skits, crafts and activities in a simulated camp environment. Our camp is intended to give kids a taste of 'sleep away' camp without the 'sleeping' or the 'going far from home'! Potential campers are generally elementary school age (although some sessions are geared for a bit younger or a bit older) who are looking for a fun experience in an after school program, a Saturday camp session, a week long day camp, a different type of in-school program (traditional school, home school or preschool/childcare), a parents' night out or a birthday party. Camp sessions can have more general camp activities or can have a specific theme. Campers build self esteem, team work, social and motor skills. the focus is on having fun but there is an undercurrent of learning as campers participate in various activities. Depending on the theme and the purpose of the camp, specific learning skills/standards can be covered.

Remember the last time you looked at something in wonderment? It was something so unique and interesting that it stopped you in your tracks. We aim to create those moments of wonderment each day as children are being exposed to new things all the time. It is wonderment that makes a child associate learning with fun and leads to a successful approach to school as they grow up. Elementary school has changed since we were kids. Schools need to prepare elementary students for different skills and jobs than in the past. We balance academic foundational items with team projects, business enrichment and creative problem solving to allow kindergarten through 6th grade students to develop the knowledge, the character and the confidence to succeed in the 21st century. While other schools cut programs, increase class sizes and fall short of educational expectations, Phoenix Children's Academy offers you and your child a world of choices suited to your family's needs and balanced by small class sizes and an educational experience that is second to none. We're not only educators but we're parents too. We know first-hand how much you want to stay connected with your child and what they are learning. Together, we chart a course for your child with an on-going dialogue to share ideas and progress. In short, you'll be constantly informed about the development and progress of your child. Keeping children safe during their day at Phoenix Children's Academy is of utmost importance. Our teachers establish guidelines in the classroom to involve children in a world of exploration, and for keeping them safe during that exploration. We believe that it is a school's responsibility to extend a child's sense of wonder outside the classroom. Whether it is through SMART boards connecting classrooms across the country or our philanthropy projects that teach the joy of serving others, PCA is committed to the idea that community is a vital part of our lives.
