About Camp Re-Imagine Program:
Camp Re-Imagine is the summer learning program at Jefferson Elementary. Students in the Healthy Me project are learning about eating healthy and staying physically active. They will be operating a 2-day restaurant as part of their culminating project.
The partnership between Davenport Community School District and Mississippi Bend AEA developed a pilot program focusing on how summer can be more than preventing summer loss. Summer can advance learning and skills. Camp Re-Imagine was developed around five foundational principles that increase enthusiasm, engagement and authentic learning for all students: 1. Student-Centered Learning 2. Collaboration 3. Culture of Curiosity 4. Personalization 5. Growth Mindset. The redesign of summer learning uses theme-based opportunities to enhance and enrich learning experiences that will boost educational/cognitive skills and career and college readiness at the elementary level.
