SUMMER PROGRAMS/CHILDCARE PAGE

Vermont Street Summer Program:

West Hills offers a summer program for children ages 3 to 12 years of age. Our program runs from June to August, five days a week. The classroom activities include both traditional learning and playing materials, music, art and crafts. Our program offers many activities that will enrich your child's summer experience.

For students ages 5 and older, we offer theme based sessions including drama and dance, Spanish language and culture, science and sports. One day a week, the Older and Elementary classes will either take a field trip to a nearby point of interest/cultural event that relates to the theme or have a special offering held at school. For our younger students, we offer a summer program of Montessori education and creative expression exploration. We have a Creative Movement Specialist, Joan Gunness, who facilitates a special class combining creative movement, music, and art, once a week. The children have the opportunity to express themselves through various mediums. Focus is on developing a sense of body awareness as well as the relationship of self to others. This allows students to connect with their own inner impulse for a unique creative expression.
