Unfortunately, we do not have scholarships or financial aid available for Summer Camps.
We carefully select experienced teachers who have strong skills working with children. Some Summit teachers will return to instruct over the summer. Our class sizes are 16 students max to one teacher to ensure quality instruction takes place.
All camps must be paid in full.
Our registration site will only list those classes that are not full. For classes that are full, you will see a waitlist option.
Yes, depending on the type of camp. Most Themed camps are offered on a weekly basis. There is a two-week musical camp in June. Sports Performance Camp runs eight weeks, but students can register for one week up to all eight weeks. Please see our Summer Camp Guide for more information.
Register students for their current grade level until May 1 (the system will automatically graduate all past and current students on that date). After May 1, families will register students for their fall grade level. Summer camps are for all local K-6th graders, although recently graduated 6th graders may also enroll.
