Who is Baroody Camps?
Baroody Camps was started in 2003 as a basketball summer camp by a young PE teacher, Pete Baroody. After 4 successful summers of camp, Baroody Camps was incorporated and grew to three locations. As the summers passed, Baroody Camps added new programs and recruited some amazing area teachers to run some of the most fun camps around. In 2014, Baroody Camps started to work with local elementary schools during the school year to help them administer their after school enrichment programs. With unparalleled experience in educational leadership, teaching, creating curriculum, facility management, and customer service. Pete has a unique view on how things should be done. "We do our best to bring it all together to serve all of our partners; parents, teachers, school administrators, program providers, and of course our amazing students."
After 17 years of teaching, Pete is putting all of his efforts in to helping Baroody Camps work with providers to create some of the best learning experiences for students in Northern Virginia.

Standards of Behavior
We want to ensure that all students participating in the clubs enjoy the experience.
• It is expected that all students will abide by ACPS classroom and school rules and regulations during clubs.
• Instructors are experienced at using classroom management techniques to allow misbehaving children time to adjust. If a child continues to have difficulties, he or she will be removed from the club and remain with the onsite coordinator who will decide if and when the child can return to the club that day and inform parents about the situation.
• If the child is removed from that club a second time, the child will be withdrawn from that club for the remainder of the session. The parents and school will be informed of this decision. No partial refunds will be given in these situations. We look to all parents to support our instructors so all of our children can have an enjoyable experience.
