RAS Camps is part of Right At School and uses local staff who know the school and community. The program offers flexible options so families can choose their days, their weeks, and their schedule, and camp availability varies by location. Before Camp: Arrive & Thrive is included in all Full-Day and Half-Day AM Summer Camp plans, and After Camp: Stay & Play is included in all Full-Day and Half-Day PM Summer Camp plans. Summer Camps require a separate authorization for financial support compared to school-year programs.

One parent shared that RAS has been a great experience, that their daughter truly enjoys being there each day, and that the program staff are helpful, kind, and communicative. The parent also noted that they enjoy the newsletters each week and learning about the fun and educational activities the students have been participating in.
