We offer 6 to 8 weeks of summer camp* during the summer (in June, July, and, possibly, the first week of August).
Currently, students (up to rising first graders) are eligible to enroll in Mountain School camps. Priority is given to currently enrolled students.

SAMPLE WEEKS
CREATIVE COSTUMES
Fine motor skills and imagination will be engaged, as each child helps to design and sew (with assistance!) his or her own pieces for dress-up play. The children will take their creations home at the end of the week.
MERRY MUSIC MAKING
We will begin each morning in song, while we explore the different sound qualities of a variety of objects. Throughout the week children will use everyday objects to craft their own musical instruments, to be taken home at the end of the week.
NATURAL WOOL DYING & TOY MAKING
We will dye wool with natural organic foods and spices, like onions and turmeric soup spice; then we will make the dyed wool into toys to take home. Natural wool dying is wet splashy fun!
ADVENTURES IN NATURE
We will go for daily hikes, off campus, to move, and explore nature in the neighborhood.
BEAN BAG TURTLES
We will make bean bag turtles for puppet shows!
SEA TREASURE & FISHING FRIENDS
We will sing songs, hear stories about the sea, and make a fishing treasure game to bring home.
