Camp Overview
This year, Merritt Academy has designed a special 10-week experience to keep our campers safe, engaged and entertained all summer long! Campers will enjoy discovering different festivals around the world each week as they “Celebrate Summer.” Once again, families will have the option to choose between our traditional themed summer camp and popular classroom camp program.

Classroom Camp
Based on the successful launch of this camp last summer, we proudly offer a a program combining academic enrichment with classic summer fun. Participating campers will attend collaborative lessons on Mondays and Wednesdays, work on grade-specific skills on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and enjoy project-based learning activities on Fridays. After their morning studies, campers will resume an afternoon full of play, laughter and poolside fun.
The Merritt Academy Summer Camp hours will be 7:00am – 3:30pm.
With our latest campus enhancements now complete, campers will be able to enjoy our main playground as well as additional activity areas such as our pavilion and cafeteria deck. These play spaces help maintain social distancing among our camp groups.
