Is School's Out! free for parents?

Yes. Always free for parents. No credit card, no paywall. We may eventually charge camps for Featured placement — never families.

How do you pick which camps to list?

Every camp is manually reviewed. We check the website, confirm the ages and location, and only list operators running real programs in the neighborhoods we cover.

Does School's Out! take a cut of camp bookings?

No. We're a directory, not a broker. Parents book directly on the camp's website. Camp operators keep 100% of every booking.

Will my family data be shared?

No. Kid data stays on your device per our COPPA-aligned design. The only data we store on our server is the email you give us for closure reminders — and you can unsubscribe any time.

What if my kid's school isn't listed?

Use the city request form. Tell us the city (and your email) and we'll email you the moment we add your school or expand coverage.

Who built School's Out!?

Noah (age 8) and his dad, in Coral Gables. Noah sketched the first version on a napkin during Spring Break 2025 — when every camp was already sold out.
