Dear Parents and Guardians,
Thank you for your interest in the Saint Jude the Apostle School summer program. This year our program will consist of weekly themes that will involve indoor and outdoor activities. Each week a detailed itinerary will be provided. Children will be able to participate in activities such as sports, arts and crafts, gym games, books, board games and learn through discovery.
Please be advised that all children registering for our summer program who do not currently attend Saint Jude the Apostle School must have a registration form along with a health form with immunization records attached. We cannot accept a child without both forms completed. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact our school at 283-0333.

Welcome
Our new summer program is offered students in Pre-k through 5th Grade.
The program will run for 8 weeks from June 27th through August 19th, 2022 from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm.
The staff consists of teachers from St. Jude the Apostle School and Afterschool Programs, who are experienced in educational and recreational programs.
Children need to bring a bottle of water and a readiness to have lots of fun. Lunch is provided daily, but children may bring their own lunch from home if they prefer.
Our summer camp program is run by Mr. Marc Giuliano, an educator with 20+ years. Marc is known for his famous Mr. G’s Fun camp that was formerly run at Sacred Heart School in Troy. We are happy to have Mr. Giuliano at St Jude the Apostle for our summer camp program again this year!

Among all the fun and excitement that we offer, we provide breakfast*, snack, lunch**, and popsicles every day! Every week we will have a McDonald’s Day and a Pizza Party, among other children friendly lunches.
Every week the campers will also enjoy a Bounce House Day and our famous WATER DAY! This is where we either turn our playground into a waterpark or rent a huge waterslide from Upstate Inflatables and enjoy games, activities, and water fun!
All of these fabulous activities will be supervised by St. Jude the Apostle and area school Safe Environment trained staff!
