3 2017 Summer Programs Overview It s summer time at American Heritage School! Summer can be a wonderful time to refresh the spirit, connect with nature, and spend quality time as a family. Summer is also a great time to try new things or cultivate a hobby and it s the perfect time for students to get a leg up on the skills that matter most to them. This summer, American Heritage School is introducing a variety of summer camps to help families make the most of their summers. Does your student need extra help with math, science, or study skills? Our academic summer camps offer individualized teaching in small group settings while still allowing students to sleep in, just a little. Did your family set a fitness goal this summer? Our summer athletic camps will not only get the children moving and making friends, but will also teach them all the fundamentals they need to make exercise a safe and healthy lifelong habit. Do you have a motivated musician? The Lyceum Music Festivals offer string players sidebyside coaching and unforgettable performance experiences both with the stars and under the stars. Taught by experienced AHS instructors, guest presenters, professionals, and practitioners, these summer camps will give students new opportunities to engage in rigorous learning experiences to study one subject in depth and to experience new ways of learning. While many of the camps are designed to meet the curriculum needs of American Heritage Students, all are open to the community at large. We welcome students who are willing to demonstrate selfgovernment and adhere to the American Heritage School Honor Code, found here for grades 1 6, and here for grades Uniforms are not required. Summer camps are just one of many ways American Heritage School helps families educate the hearts and minds of their children. We re excited to be a part of your summer!
