FAQ

List of 5 frequently asked questions.

What should my child bring to camp?

Clothing: Campers should wear comfortable clothes and shoes appropriate for their scheduled activities. Shorts, T-shirts and tennis shoes are suggested for most classes. Students cannot wear inappropriately low tops or pants or clothing that exposes midriff or under garments. Campers will not have lockers so many choose to bring a small backpack. Water bottle: Please pack a refillable water bottle. Take time to mark the water bottle and personal belongings with your child's name.
Are cell phones and electronics allowed?

Brilliant Summer requests that your child not bring valuables or electronics to camp. Cell phones and electronics may not be used during camp hours. Mark all personal belongings with your camper's name. While we make every effort to find campers’ lost or missing possessions, St. Catherine's School is not responsible for them. Our lost-and-found box is in the Brilliant Summer office. All lost-and-found items as well as classroom projects must be claimed by the close of camp on August 4.
There are a lot of choices? How do I figure this out?

Great Question! You can start by browsing the pages above based on the rising grade of your child. We also have Special Interest camps that are half-day or full day and Design Your Day camps that can fill your day with many activities.
Is Extended Day essentially another camp?

Extended Day is a space for continued exploration for your child to allow parents the time to complete their workday.
Is it too late to register?

Registration continues into the summer! Please use the Register Here link at the top of the page or contact us with any questions.
