We’ve created a cohesive summer program that is relevant and purposeful, providing a lasting impact for both campers and parents—whether you’re with us for one week or all five. Campers will take part in familiar summer camp experiences like storytelling, scavenger hunts, and podcast-making—rooted in the values that make The Co-op School unique. Virtual sessions will be curated and led by members of The Co-op School staff, offering those personal and professional connections that made our remote learning program so successful.
Summer Camp Mission
For 17 years, The Co-op School has pioneered an engaged community- and project-led approach to learning. Students, staff, and parents contribute to the development of our unique culture. Our approach to summer camp is no different. At The Co-op School’s summer camp, you’ll find the same core values of joyful learning and community action that inform our school year-round adapted to summertime fun.
We Emphasize Community Action
We believe appreciating our world starts with understanding how things work and how we can get involved. With this in mind, we guide campers through the following tracts, all while offering a unique online experience that nurtures a personalized experience. From movie-making to debate to Spanish and Greek Myths, each day is a balance of fun activities, learning, wellness, and action.
Daily Structure
Each day, from 8:45 to 3:50, is structured in 50-minute sessions based on the following chosen tracks led by Co-op School staff. Each day also features other shared group activities, including an opening campfire, lunch with a podcast, social-emotional learning & mindfulness, movement, and yoga. Special tracks are designed for two groups, ages 7–9 and ages 10-13.
