Summer 2026 Youth Programs and Camps

Our new registration process is a faster and more efficient way to sign up for our Youth programming (Kidz on Campus Camps, Extended Care Services, and Saturday One-Day Camps).

The enrollment deadline for Extended Care options will close at 3 pm on the Friday prior to each camp's start date. Make sure you sign up for Extended Care (if you need it) before this deadline. Extended Care courses are NON-REFUNDABLE.

Please avoid bringing electronics to camps as they are a distraction. We are not responsible for lost or stolen items brought to camps.

Give yourself extra time to make sure you arrive at your camp on time and avoid parking in non-designated areas around the University.

To expedite the check-in process at our camps, please complete the Minor Participation Form seven (7) days prior to the start of the camp. Click here for the Minor Participation Form. If you have not completed it in advance, you will have to complete the form on site as part of the check-in process.

Please click here for the summer camp program’s refund policy to ensure you understand the deadlines, eligible circumstances, and any applicable fees before registering.

Student Code of Conduct

KidZ on Campus Behavior Expectations

At Professional and Public Programs' Youth Programs and Camps, we strive to create a positive, safe, and respectful environment where every camper can learn, grow, and have fun.

We expect all campers to:

Always act respectfully and responsibly.
Treat others with kindness, fairness, and respect.
Behave in a mature way that supports a welcoming camp community.

If a camper ever feels they are being treated unfairly or need help resolving a situation with another student, we encourage them to speak with their instructor or any Professional and Public Programs staff member right away.

Behavior Policy

If a camper has difficulty meeting these expectations, we will take the following steps as behavior concerns progress. Please note that camp fees are non-refundable if a camper is sent home for disciplinary reasons. If your child is registered for additional weeks and has not yet attended them, those future sessions will be refunded.

Progressive Steps for Behavior Management

Verbal Warning and Redirection
- The instructor or student assistant will redirect the camper to more appropriate behavior and issue a verbal warning.
Incident Report and Parent Notification
- If inappropriate behavior continues, the student assistant and/or instructor will submit an incident report to the Program Coordinator.
- The Lead Student Assistant or Program Coordinator will contact the parent(s)/guardian(s) by phone to discuss the situation.
Second Incident Report and Parent Meeting
- If behavior issues persist and continue to affect the experience of other campers, a second incident report will be filed.
- The Program Manager and Program Coordinator will meet in person with the camper and their parent(s)/guardian(s) to discuss the behavior and consequences.
- A follow-up email will be sent to the parent(s)/guardian(s) as written notification, warning that a third incident report will result in dismissal.
Dismissal from Camp
- If a camper continues to exhibit inappropriate behavior after previous interventions and accumulates three incident reports, the camper will be dismissed from the current camp session and removed from all Professional and Public Programs youth program enrollments for that term.
- Depending on the severity or frequency of incidents, the camper may also be prohibited from participating in future Professional and Public Programs youth programs or camps.

Examples of Inappropriate Behavior

Using profanity, vulgarity or obscenity
Stealing or damaging property (personal or camp property)
Refusal to participate in activities or cooperate with staff
Disrupting a program
Leaving a program without permission
Endangering the health and safety of children and/or staff
Teasing, making fun or bullying of other campers and/or staff

SPECIAL NOTE: Physical violence or bullying toward another camper and/or staff member will result in immediate dismissal from the camp program.
