About

Village School Summer Camps for Girls offers sessions where campers explore patterns in numbers and nature, collect and analyze data, and visualize patterns through girl-driven art creations. Campers use patterns to solve problems and make generalizations, including tackling developmentally appropriate contest math problems, and take part in activities that include food, art, nature, games, problem-solving, hands-on modeling, and field trips. Additional sessions focus on themes such as monsters, mythology, quests, Percy Jackson fanfic, graphic-novel making, capture the flag (Camp Half Blood style!), writing workshops to write fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and songs, and arts and theatrical camps inspired by favorite fairy tales or animated movie themes with acting, improv, singing, dancing, costume design, set design, and a creative showcase every Friday for family and friends.

• Ages: 6–13 years old
• Schedule: Day camps generally run 9:00am–3:00pm in week-long sessions, with one four-day session

Village School states that it is a warm and welcoming place for girls to discover their strengths, find their voices, and grow into confident, self-reliant, and intellectually curious learners, and that it provides the skills and support necessary to engage in a challenging four-year curriculum so that girls can safely take risks and make responsible personal and academic choices. Village School notes that extending learning beyond the classroom walls and into the community fosters compassion and social responsibility. The school highlights an all-girls environment, highly personalized instruction with small class size, and an academic curriculum that includes English, Humanities, Latin, Math, Science, Fine Arts, and Physical Education, and it states that it admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin and does not discriminate on that basis in its policies and programs, and that as a school for girls it will equally consider all applications of individuals identifying as a girl. One parent of Village School alumnae from ’01 and ’06 reports that both of their girls came away with a love of learning and a genuine curiosity about the world.
