Champions @ Carroll Elementary

About

Overview

Champions at Carroll Elementary runs on the school campus from a portable adjacent to the school parking lot. The site offers on‑campus care and seasonal programs designed to extend the school day and provide care during school breaks.

Approach and curriculum

The site uses a structured, research-informed approach that balances child‑initiated play and teacher‑led activities to support literacy, math, science and social skills. Programming includes small‑group instruction, whole‑group activities and hands‑on learning experiences to support early learning and school readiness.

Health, safety and family routines

Staff undergo background checks and training in child development, first aid and CPR.
Wellness screening and ongoing health monitoring are used at arrival and throughout the day.
Sanitation practices include daily cleaning with non‑toxic products and frequent hand washing.
Security protocols require signed child pick‑up, identification for approved pick‑ups, and restricted site access to authorized staff and families.
Emergency procedures and evacuation plans are maintained and tested, with support from a central crisis team.

Meals and outdoor activities

Sites follow federal and state nutrition guidelines when meals are provided and may restrict certain food items to accommodate allergies. Outdoor play is supervised and conducted in secure on‑site play spaces; families must provide permission for off‑site field trips.
