At Peoria Academy, we offer an exciting and enriching Summer Camp experience for students ages 5-14 (Entering Kindergarten - Exiting 8th Grade). PA Summer Camp runs for 10 weeks during the summer, from June 2nd through August 8th. Each week of camp has a theme, and the activities, special guests, and field trips will all fall under these categories.
Along with our General Camp, which runs Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to 3:30PM, we have Specialty Camps every week that run from 8:30AM to 11:30AM. You can choose to register for General Camp, Specialty Camp, or a combination of both!
We also offer before care and after care during the week! Before care runs from 7:30AM to 8:30AM and after care runs from 3:30PM to 5:30PM.
