SUMMER CAMP 2026 INFORMATION BELOW
SUMMER CAMP 2026 INFORMATION BELOW
Care doesn’t end when school begins.
Finding reliable, quality care for school-age children isn't easy and we built RISE because families deserve better than scrambling for coverage every time school is closed.
RISE — Reaching Individual Students Everyday — is our school-age program designed to be the consistent, caring constant in your child's week.
Before school, after school, no-school days, 4K Fridays, and all summer long. Little Raiders has your family covered with the same trusted team your child already knows and loves.
School Year Wrap-Around Care
Before school, after school, 4K Fridays, and every no-school day in between.

When families use RISE

This summer, Little Raiders is partnering with the Arcadia School District to make summer school seamless for your family. We will be coordinating directly with Arcadia's Summer Spark and Jumpstart (4k) programs so your child can take advantage of free summer school without any of the scheduling headaches.
June 8th, 2026 to June 25th, 2026; Monday through Thursday (8:00AM- 12:30PM)
Here's how it works: once your child is dropped off with us in the morning, we walk them to summer school at 8 a.m. (earlier for breakfast if needed) and pick them up directly from Arcadia staff when the program ends. From there, they're back with us for the rest of the day.
On Fridays, when summer school is not in session, your child spends the full day with us at RISE. Once summer school wraps up for the season, children transition seamlessly into full-time RISE programming.
If your child is bussed to summer school independently, they can join us at RISE afterward and be picked up by you at the end of the day.
Summer school is free for families, keeps your child learning all summer long, and reduces your RISE tuition costs during those weeks — a win all around.
We are asking all RISE Summer 2026 families to enroll their child in Arcadia's summer school program this year. Our team will help walk you through the sign-up process when we follow up after your interest form is submitted.
To learn more about Arcadia's summer programming visit arcadia.k12.wi.us/summer.
Summer at Little Raiders is more than just childcare — it's adventures, friendships, and memories your child will talk about all year. If you're interested in RISE Summer 2026, fill out the form and we'll reach out with everything you need to know. We can't wait to meet your family.
We ask that you submit one form per child so we can keep each child's information organized and follow up accurately. If you have more than one child joining us this summer, simply submit the form again for each additional child. It only takes a minute and makes sure no one gets left out.
