Waterloo Elementary School begins its Summer Camps and Family Fun schedule of daytime classes the week of July 13 with special programming lasting well into August.
Waterloo Principal Mrs. Lisa McLaughlin said the camps have proven so popular with Waterloo students that many of the classes which are provided free of charge have waiting lists of up to 20 students. In addition, lunch is provided free each day.
Here is this year’s schedule of camps:
July 13-17, Super Scientist Camp, all day.
July 20-24, Robotics Camp, morning (older students); Readers Theater Camp, morning (younger students); Robotics Camp, afternoon (younger students); Readers Theater Camp, afternoon (older students).
August 3-6, Video Announcements and Wild Wind Camps, presented by the Monroe County Intermediate School District staff, all day.
August 10-14, Engineering Camp, all day.
In addition, Waterloo will schedule a program of 4-H fun for students in the 3rd through 6th grades this fall. The group will attend the Monroe County Fair to plan for a year of 4-H activities at Waterloo.
Families can get in on the fun, too, with Family Geocaching Nights at the Knabusch Math and Science Center in Bolles Harbor. The two remaining nights are July 13 and 27. In this activity, participants will learn the principles behind the Global Positioning System and how it is used is business and for fun.
