How many kids do you have in your summer camp?
I have over 100 students.
GEPIK is making alot of money off me.
I wonder if any of the money made from English camps will go back into the Eng. program?
...probably not!

Do the students parents have to pay money for summer camp at the school? I thought it was free.

Is it free?
My friend did a middle school winter camp , and he was told each student paid 100 000 won for 20 hours worth of camp.
I think it makes more sense that the parents would have to pay a little extra.
But , I could be wrong.

bout 120 total, but its split over 10 o so teachers. So its around 12 or less in each class....

But its a free camp setup by the BOE.....so we get no extra money, they dont make money.....kinda good to have a break from normal school - plus its only half days.

From waht I ve been , the kids do pay a small fee. Who told you that they ( the students ) dont pay?

I know the teachers arent suppose to get extra pay. However , if the school is making money , I think that some of the funds should go back into the ESL program.

You are rigth , it is a nice break from the norm.

My school made a big deal last month of encouraging students to sign up for summer camp at the school. At the end of each class my co-teacher emphasized the fact that summer camp was free whilst hagwons cost money.

I had 47 students sign up. 5/6th grade - 15, 3/4th grade - 20, and my special class - 12.

However, of those students that HAVE bothered to show up ... 5/6th grade - 4, 3/4th grade - 14, and my special class - 6.
