Our Philosophy
Children in the Rainbow School Summer Camp
Program are free to join any activities pre-
sented by the staff. They are not required to
participate only encouraged. We feel it is impor-
tant to provide a noncompetitive but stimulating
environment that will interest your child.
Our philosophy is to allow each child to strive for
independence while developing responsible
behavior and self-control. The staff provides
support and guidance to assist your child’s
growing sense of judgement and responsibility.
Rainbow School welcomes people of all races,
colors, religion, national origin and ancestries.
