A Place to be Active...The New School’s campus offers excellent facilities for summer fun indoors and out. Our campers’ days are filled with stimulating activities that build physical awareness and self esteem. Recreational activities take place inside our gym or on our spacious outdoor playground facilities and playing fields.

A Time to be Social...Each summer day at The New School balances structured activities with free time to let campers choose their own activities with friends. After each day’s afternoon activ-ity, campers spend the rest of the day in a relaxed, so-cial environment with recess, computer lab, and free art time.
