- Warren Garrett and Davonte Rockett enjoy a break during Thursday’s camp.
The St. John the Baptist Parish School District partnered with New Wine Christian Fellowship and Marathon Petroleum Corporation to provide a camp for East St. John Elementary School students, which started Thursday.
Those students have not attended classes since a fire heavily damaged the school Aug. 13.
The camp runs from 7 a.m. to 2:40 p.m. Monday through Friday as needed. Bus transportation provided by the school district is available.
Before and after care is also available beginning at 6 a.m. and ending at 6 p.m. for parents providing their own transportation.
Marathon is funding the camp’s main hours at no cost to the School District.
There is a charge for the after hours option.
