NTI Childcare and NTI Camps in Louisville
Many parents are seeking information about NTI Childcare or NTI Camps for their kids for the 2020-2021 school year
We have researched businesses and organizations that are offering childcare services for virtual learning.
NTI Childcare is a very big concern for many Louisville parents. Businesses and organizations are innovating to provide camps or other forms of childcare to help parents with virtual learning.
Most of these camps incorporate time for the child’s school work along with other activities that the places provide. The camps and childcare locations should be able to provide you with schedules for the day as well as details on how they are following health and safety guidelines.
Some of the options are flexible and others are more full-time childcare. Many have capped the number of students so if you are in need of this service, contact locations quickly. However, if you don’t want to send your child to another location, there are options for “pandemic pod” childcare.
We hope that parents can find what they need for NTI childcare through an NTI camp or some other alternative. This school year is definitely going to be a challenge in so many ways, any way LouFamFun can make it a more positive experience, we will try!
NTI Childcare and NTI Camps in Louisville
The Jewish Community Center’s Camp J 365 is a NTI (non-traditional instruction) support program for grades K-5, where children will find a sense of normalcy for the school year. The goal of Camp J 365 NTI support program is to provide a safe environment for children to attend virtual classes and complete their assignments. We help students log on to classes, assist with task management, and provide socially-distanced activities and programming when they are not actively working on NTI.
Students are provided their own workspace in our classroom-style environments complete with decorations, books, games, and various school and art supplies. Our afternoons are programmed with special activities such as Sports, Art, and Drama. We utilize a ‘pod system’ to minimize COVID-19 exposure, limiting class sizes from 9-13. We also offer a staff-student ratio of 1:5, which allows us to provide students the supervision and attention they need to manage their schoolwork. Additionally, our students have access to free online tutoring through the H.U.G. (Help us Grow) Reading Program.
