Providing the opportunity for academic maturation during the summer months can make a remarkable difference in a student's readiness for the school year ahead. However, as a parent, I know it is difficult to identify safe and age-appropriate school settings. Summer academic options include “college-like” residential programs and local for-profit tutorial centers. I welcome your interest in Wolfeboro and invite you to better understand what our age appropriate, structured 'camp' school can offer your son or daughter.

We believe that academic success is as much a function of attitude, confidence, and modus operandi as it is of intellectual capacity. Our mission is to create a positive experience for each student at every opportunity;not simply to teach basic skills or subject content. Our commitment is to teach young people how to function effectively and responsibly as both students and as members of a community.

Our belief, affirmed summer after summer, is that a young person functions best and achieves the most within an environment in which all requirements are understood. While we are proudly firm in all areas of accountability, the sensitive response and individualized attention from our veteran faculty supports students in meeting these high standards.

The 3 to 1 ratio of students to faculty and staff enables Wolfeboro to place top priority on the safety, health, and quality of life of the young people we serve. Concurrently, our class size of 4 to 6 students ensures that our veteran teachers will connect with your son or daughter while our cell phone and computer free campus eliminates distraction and promotes wholesome productivity.

While this website does depict the essence of Wolfeboro, it is difficult to fully convey the compassionate response of a teacher, the encouragement of an intramural coach, the family setting of the dining hall, or the harmonious interaction of the School community. I invite you to share your questions or concerns with me and explore the ways in which six weeks at Wolfeboro can contribute to the educational development which you seek for your son or daughter.
