The Keansburg School District, with the support of a diverse group of local collaborators, operates an afterschool and summer camp program at the Joseph R. Bolger Middle School and Caruso Elementary School. By focusing on the whole child, the Keansburg School District promotes the emotional, cognitive, physical, and cultural development of all children who attend. Students receive educational remediation in math and language arts, and enrichment in the areas of science, art, nutrition, gardening, and technology, through the alignment of project-based lessons. Homework help is available to every child daily, and a homework link with school-day teachers is an additional tool to improve academic performance. Students participate in various recreational activities including organized sports, yoga, gardening, arts and crafts, and board games. High school students receive job training skills and serve as mentors and program assistants. Character Education is infused into the program using the Character Counts curriculum. Community Service projects also give students the opportunity to build character and develop positive leadership skills.
