Basic Camp Information

• We offer camps for elementary-aged children. Children are split into groups depending on age.

• We are located at 2180 N. Salem St. Suite 102-105 Apex, NC.

• We have 3 spaces we use - our Art Room, Middle Room & Drama Room. 

• Drop off is anytime after 9 a.m. and pick up is anytime before 4:30 p.m.
  Children do not need to arrive right at 9 a.m.  We start our morning rotations around 9:30 a.m.

• Before care is available beginning at 8:30 a.m and After care available until 5:30 p.m

• Signing your child in and out (including the name of the person picking up) is required.

• Your child will need lunch, a water bottle, and 2 snacks.

• We recommend children wear clothes that can get messy.

• Please bring an extra set of clothes that can be kept in backpack.

• Each week the children rehearse a skit which is recorded on Fridays.  We post the performance on an app so parents can enjoy watching their children at their convenience. *Note - half day campers may not be able to participate in the weekly play.

Parent Responsibilities

• Any medications provided must be current.  We cannot accept any expired medications (including EpiPens, inhalers, etc.).

• PLEASE be sure staff is aware of any special needs, or allergies your child may have.

• PLEASE understand that some of the projects and the video of the camp’s skit/play are posted on the Art of Stem Facebook page. If you are not comfortable with this, it is your responsibility to mark this in your Sawyer account.

Use of Technology

• Rudimentary coding and simple animation projects are incorporated into the day’s activities.   

• Children will be permitted up to 20 minutes of “Free Choice Tech Time”. This allows children to explore various creative, age-appropriate apps and games as well as have some downtime.

Weather Policy

• In the event of inclement weather, safety is our number one priority. We may not always follow Wake County Schools but we will keep our families informed via email and text messages.  We will monitor situations and as long as staff are safely able to make it into the facility and power is in tact, we will remain open. Please use your best discretion when traveling in these situations. Continue to check your email and phone for updates.

• There will be no partial refunds for weather closings.
