GrowFit started as a physical education company with the whole child in mind and we believe strongly in the importance of education, socialization, and physical activity. We have already built the infrastructure, during COVID-19, which requires stable groups of 16 only, and have been operating all of our Bay Area locations without pause during the COVID-19 crisis. To date, our systems, procedures, and safety protocols have worked to not only ensure parents of the safety of our program, but also our abilities to offer top-notch support in a time where care is scarce.

Camp starts at 9:00 am.
Pick up: Camp ends at 1:00 pm.

Lunch: GrowFit does not provide lunches. Your child will need to bring their own lunch.

Snacks: All campers get snack breaks during the day so we recommend packing at least 3 healthy snacks.

Water bottle: Bringing a couple of water bottles to stay hydrated will be beneficial as we do not have the use of water fountains due to COVID restrictions.

Shoes & clothing: We suggest that everyone wear athletic clothing and athletic shoes. An extra set of clothing should be brought for younger children.

Additionally, your child will need to bring:

Laptop computers/Ipad or any needed electronic devices
Headphones
Chargers and any other supplies needed for computers
Water bottles
Several snacks & lunch
Books/materials required for school work
Printed school schedule
Checklist of what needs to be done for the day
Phones left at home, if needed, put away for the day

GrowFit will supply:

Charging stations
WIFI (blocked websites)
Games/sports activities
Support from staff on getting the remote learning up and running and with schoolwork
Designated space/tables/chairs for kids to do their work that does not change for 3 weeks

What will the staff support look like?

GrowFit staff will not be teaching children, but instead supporting the learning process by monitoring, and reviewing school and lesson notes provided by teachers.

If a child has a question regarding schoolwork, the coaches will not be teaching children any new information. Instead, the coach will review the lesson notes with the child with the resources provided by the teacher. If the child still has a question or does not understand, the coach will ask another child in the class for support and assist the child in emailing the teacher for help.

Specifically, we are serving all students at Encinal.
