Registration

For all summer camp registrations, select the age-appropriate camp that interests your child based on the grade they will be entering in September 2025.  Depending on the camp, there are several options to choose from 7-week, 4-week, 3-week, 2-week, 1-week, and end-of-camp options. 

Residency privilege is extended to Kindergarten through Grade 8 students living in the geographic boundaries of North Shore School District 112 and students Grade 9 through 12 living in the geographic boundaries of Highland Park High School.
