Here’s what you need to know:
Eligibility: All students enrolled at CCS, CES, DDB, MVP, and OCS—no paperwork or applications needed!
Meals Provided: 1 Breakfast and 1 Lunch, every day that school is in session.

🌟 Teacher Spotlight 🌟
We're excited to highlight one of our incredible summer program teachers at Camp Innovation, Mrs. Engle! She has devoted her time and energy to teaching our campers about the wonders of agriculture. From exploring where our food comes from to observing the beautiful world around us, Mrs. Engle has made learning an adventure.
Thank you, Mrs. Engle, for showing our campers what it means to be curious, inquisitive, and critical thinkers. Your passion for the outdoors and dedication to our campers have made a lasting impact on everyone involved.
Here's to the endless curiosity and the joy of learning at Camp Innovation! 🌱🌻🍎

Did you know that a sheep’s heart has very similar anatomy to a human heart (both have 4 chambers) and that the average human heart beats >2 BILLION times in a lifetime?! 6th, 7th & 8th graders at Camp Innovation learned these facts and more while dissecting a sheep heart today at Science Vortex.

Movement, team building, and inclusiveness are a big part of Camp Innovation! We are so fortunate to have the very popular Coach Swenson bringing the fun to PE this summer!
#COCSD #campinnovation





At Camp Innovation, building friendship and trust between students and staff is fundamental to creating a positive and supportive learning environment. When students feel connected with their educators and the school community, it fosters a sense of belonging that is essential for their overall well-being and success.
We're so proud of the supportive atmosphere we're cultivating together! 🌟🤝
