✨ Camps: Policies, Self-Serve Add-Ons, and Smarter Enrollment - 01/29/26

❓ What is changing?

We’ve released several updates to Camps that streamline registration, reduce manual work, and improve the Parent Portal enrollment experience:

• You can now require policy agreement for Camps, which families must review and agree to during enrollment in the Parent Portal.

• Families can enroll students in eligible Early Drop-off and Late Pick-up options directly from the Parent Portal, with availability tied to core camp enrollment.

• Admins can add or remove Early Drop-off and Late Pick-up options on existing camp enrollments without dropping and re-enrolling students.

• Deep linking to Camps is now supported, allowing families to follow a direct link to a specific camp or session in the Parent Portal.

Together, these updates support a more complete, end-to-end camp enrollment experience.

💡 Why did Jackrabbit make this change?

Camp registration often includes policies, add-ons, and follow-up adjustments. These updates reduce manual steps for staff, give families more flexibility during enrollment, and help keep camp data accurate and consistent.

🛠️ What do I need to do?

• Assign policy groups when setting up your camps or add them later by editing the camp (in the Camp card, click the More Options icon and select Edit).
• Define add-on time periods during camp setup or add the options later.
• Set a camp to Display in Portal for parents to be able to enroll in add-on time periods.
• Access Camp links in the Details section of the Camp drawer (opened with the Manage Sessions button in the Class card).
