About
Livermore Valley Academy Summer Camp includes reading practice, writing practice, hands-on STEAM activities, physical activity, PE, and weekly field trips. Campers also take part in weekly cooking or food-tasting experiences as part of the program’s activities. The camp follows a “Secret Agent” theme with an overall focus on investigation, with weekly themes such as Zoology Week, Multi-Cultural Week, Water Week, and Decades Week, and campers are grouped by age or grade level with adjustments based on individual student needs.
• Ages: 5–13 years old
• Schedule: LVA Summer Camp runs June 16 to July 25 in 2-week sessions or a full 6-week session, with no camp on Friday, July 4; Slingerland Summer Camp runs June 16 to July 11 as a 4-week session
• Price: Summer Camp 2-week sessions are $950 each or $2,400 for the full 6-week session; Slingerland Camp is $2,600 for the 4-week session; there is a $400 non-refundable deposit due with the application and the balance is due by June 2, 2025; Pizza Fridays offer lunch for $5.00, and snacks are available for purchase for $1.00 each
During the camp day, daycare is available from 8:00–9:00 AM, camp and Slingerland Camp run from 9:00 AM–12:00 PM, lunch is from 12:00–1:00 PM, Summer Camp continues from 1:00–3:00 PM, and PE/daycare runs from 3:00–5:00 PM. Students are encouraged to wear sunblock daily and bring it with them, bring a labeled water bottle each day, and bring their own lunch and snacks except when purchasing Pizza Fridays or snacks at camp. The camp generally provides all supplies for classroom activities, and students may occasionally be asked to bring recycled materials from home for specific projects.
Livermore Valley Academy was founded in 2019 and states that its mission is to offer an exceptional educational experience in a diverse, inclusive, and supportive environment. The Slingerland Program at the camp is described as an intensive learning experience tailored for students diagnosed with a Specific Learning Disability and uses a multi-sensory Slingerland approach, with two Slingerland-certified teachers, including Ms. Hernandez. The camper-to-staff ratio is listed as 14:1, and 9:1 for preK–Kinder, with truly small class sizes averaging about 10 students per class and a maximum of 18 in middle school, and individualized learning plans for all students.
The campus includes a behind-the-church setting set back from street traffic, a one-way secured entry, fully fenced playground and play areas, security cameras, walkie-talkie communication, a state-of-the-art fire and sprinkler system, bathrooms inside classrooms, bright classrooms with natural light, a music room, flexible project spaces, and industrial-grade cleaning routines with daily disinfecting. Staff are CPR/First-Aid-trained and conduct regular emergency drills. Before-school and after-school care are included in tuition for the school program.
The school notes that it takes full advantage of Livermore’s cultural and scientific resources for educational field trips and serves families from Livermore, Dublin, Pleasanton, San Ramon, Walnut Creek, Discovery Bay, the Tracy area, and other parts of the Tri-Valley. Parent feedback shared by the school includes comments such as “My child is finally excited about school again,” and multiple parents describing Livermore Valley Academy and the Slingerland Program as important for their children’s reading, writing, and interest in art.
