Santa Fe College welcomes you to College for Kids 2022, a program that is dedicated to helping you develop the joy of learning in a safe and nurturing environment! For over 20 years, Santa Fe College and Community Education has brought College for Kids programs to our community and provided a fun, learning-filled summer experience for children who are 10-14 years of age. For the last two years, we held modified classes due to Covid-19. This year we are offering three weeks of camp running Monday thru Friday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., with full and half day options. Students will select 1 to 2 camps per week. Use the camp course numbers provided in the camp grid to create your child’s schedule. When registering please use your child’s name and date of birth.
Student Orientation
Student orientation will be held on Saturday, July 9, from 10 - 11 a.m. in the Lyceum Concert Hall, Bldg. E. There will only be one orientation for all three weeks of camp and we encourage everyone to attend. Please read this information packet carefully and forward the signed paperwork to us by the student’s first day of the program.

General Information
- CFK is designed as an academic and enriching educational experience and participation in the program is entirely voluntary. Once the student has committed to attend, he/she is expected to act appropriately in the college environment.
- Parents will drop off/pick up their child in the classroom. Students will only engage with the students in their specific camp.
- There will be a 15-minute break mid-morning (staggered by classrooms), which will include a bathroom break. Parents may pack healthy snacks for your children. Students are asked to bring a water bottle to camp each day.
- Parents or legal guardians are responsible for student transportation to/from the NW campus classroom.
- Consequences to Disciplinary Incidents: Santa Fe College requires that all participants, regardless of age or grade level, act following the rules of the college, Community Education, and society. Therefore, students who have a disciplinary problem in class with an instructor or in any way with the CFK Program will have their parents or guardian notified immediately. To ensure that disruptive behavior will not be repeated the CFK coordinator and parents will take the appropriate measures. If a second behavior problem occurs, the parent or guardian will be notified, and the student will be expelled from the CFK program without a refund.
