Goddard Olathe NW summer camp from May 26-August 12 2026. At Goddard, we capture the carefree essence of summer, with weekly field trips and water paly activities. Kids spend time laughing, learning and growing, slathered in sunscreen and smiles. Expert teachers guide them every step of the way helping them develop the courage to try new things, the flexibility to learn from their mistakes, and the confidence to make friends. It's all done in the comfort of a familiar place with gentle routines they already know, which means when summer ends, there's fewer first-day jitters. Just a smooth transition, sunkissed, confident and ready for school.
