All grade levels at Salmon Bay K-8 have the opportunity to experience education in an outdoor setting through our camp experience.

Elementary Camp

Elementary students go to camp in the spring. These experiences generally have a science and natural history theme and are a highlight of the year for many of our students.

• Kindergarten: day camp at Camp Long
• 1^st grade: 1 night at Camp Indianola
• 2^nd grade: 1 night at Camp Indianola
• 3^rd grade: 2 nights at Camp Colman
• 4^th grade: 2 nights at Camp Seymour
• 5^th grade: 3 nights at IslandWood

Middle School Camp

Our 6th grade students attend camp at the beginning of the school year to focus on community building and teamwork. With half of our 6^th grade students coming from other elementary schools, fall camp is a great opportunity to get to know each other and build connections for the year ahead.

Our 7th and 8th grade students start the year with Fall Connection Days, and then attend camp in the spring.

• 6^th grade: 2 nights at Camp Orkila
• 7^th grade: 2 nights at NatureBridge
• 8^th grade: 3 nights at Camp Orkila

Scholarships

No students miss out on opportunities to attend camp due to financial circumstances. FOSB helps to fund camp scholarships. If you would like to request a scholarship, contact the volunteer coordinator.
