The Wolf School

Summer Institute 2023 has officially kicked off! Today, we welcomed back faculty & staff for a week of professional development as we get ready to welcome back our students for a new school year!

From carnival-themed games to delicious carnival food - our last week of Camp Confidence has been one to remember!

Campers created their own masterpieces during a special visit from Snapology! As part of our S.T.E.A.M week, campers created their own SpinArt machines using Lego engineering kits. A huge thank you to the Sean Reardon "Be Radical" Enrichment Fund for giving our campers this incredible, hands-on, afternoon of fun!

From water balloon parachutes to a treasure hunt for water balloons - we sure knew how to celebrate National Water Balloon Day!

It's the end of another fantastic week here at Camp Confidence! We're slip-n-sliding right into the weekend and our final week of camp!

Sometimes it’s not just our families who make the move to The Wolf School. Did you know we’ve also had staff relocate for Wolf?

While a member of the Wolf community since 2010, there’s still lots you may not know about Teacher Assistant and Camp Confidence Program Director, Meg Sutton. Learn more about her in this today's Wolf Staff Wednesday!

We ended Mystery Week with an incredible themed afternoon! Campers enjoyed a visit from detectives from East Providence Police, decoded messages, and took part in a treasure hunt!

As we said goodbye to Survivor Week last Thursday, campers took part in an afternoon filled with challenges, obstacles, and fun!

As we kick off Mystery Week at Camp Confidence, our campers enjoyed a very special Messy Science lesson. Campers took part in a blind taste test of everything from pickles to skittles! We are so proud of all of them for being so brave and trying new things

What an incredible time we had at Camp Fuller! Yesterday, all of Camp Confidence got to take a full-day field trip to Camp Fuller where campers spent the day learning archery, kayaking, rock climbing, and enjoying a beautiful day outside with friends!

Thanks to the Sean Reardon "Be Radical" Enrichment Fund for bringing these incredible opportunities to our students

We spent our last All School Assembly of the year celebrating kindness! Students and staff submitted a kindness link each time they wanted to recognize someone for a kind act. Together - they made a beautiful kindness chain!

Congratulations to our incredible Room 2 students! After working so hard over the past few months, students had their Horse Show today where they were able to share their new skills with family and staff!

Room 4 transformed into Jurassic World on Friday! Room 4 students led their visitors through a series of activities including fossil puzzles, learning about the different types of dinosaurs, a fossil dig, and even a surprise visit from 2 special guests!

It's time to create some marble mazes in Room 2!

There's nothing quite like a day at the Wolf School! In Room 1 students enjoyed Cupcake Day from start to finish!

To begin, students worked on shapes as they drew their own cupcake creations. Then, with their designs printed on their very own aprons, students spent some time decorating and coloring. Next, they headed out into the community to visit The Nerdy Baker LLC where they got to decorate and enjoy their very own cupcakes! What a day!

In our before-school "Breakfast Club," students worked together to make a deliciously healthy breakfast and then got to enjoy their meal with friends!

We were thrilled to welcome back our alumni student, Sofia, to share her very own children's book with our students! We are so proud of our incredible alumni!!
