FCS Summer Programs state that they offer rich and varied experiences for campers, filled with endless fun and excitement, for children ages 3 through grade 12. The same commitment to excellence that distinguishes Friends’ Central as an independent school in the Philadelphia region is described as a central part of the summer programs. Friends’ Central School is recognized in the program materials for its friendly, welcoming atmosphere and positive interactions between children and faculty, and the Summer Programs emphasize fair play, acceptance, and respect for the individual.

All Summer Programs are managed by Friends’ Central teachers who are invested in the school community and committed to providing a positive, enriching, and safe camp experience for every child. All summer employees are oriented in and guided by the Quaker practices for which the school is known.

One family reports, “My kids LOVE this camp! The counselors are wonderful with the children and the variety of activities offered is fantastic. My kids cry at the end of camp each year! They miss their counselors and camp friends and very much look forward to summer just for camp! Thanks for everything you do- keep up the wonderful work!” Another family shares, “The children always have a positive experience. The multitude of activity options keep the children interested and engaged. Our children look forward to attending camp each summer. Who doesn’t go to FCS? They’re missing out!”
