Children with Special Needs. Parents must provide any reports and documentation of any conditions that may affect their child’s ability to participate in camp. Children are expected to work in a social constructivist community and participate in group project work. We do not have the appropriate staff to serve students who require a high level of individual instruction, remain unable to control their impulses, or who present ongoing behavioral problems. Animals: The Eastern Ridge School often hosts various species of animals living in appropriate indoor and outdoor habitats or structures. If adults/teachers handle animals when children are present, appropriate safety measures are followed. If children handle animals, adult supervision, care, hygiene and hand washing are employed. As a nature-based program, we spend a great deal of time outdoors, and do sometimes encounter animals such as amphibians, birds, reptiles, insects and small mammals in their natural habitats. There is increased risk of injury when exploring outdoor settings, including the risk of exposure to insects such as wasps, ticks, mosquitoes, and black widow spiders. Parents can decrease the risk of some injuries by ensuring that children are dressed appropriately for outdoor experiences. Health Requirements
