From the Head
Wolfeboro has always been a guide star for me when it comes to education. Our commitment to finding joy and community provides an environment for students to take risks and push themselves in the classroom and beyond.
A Summer Learning Experience Like No Other
Simply put, there is no other place on earth like the Wolfeboro Camp School. Our picturesque campus is a direct link to the natural world, helping to magnify student growth, happiness, and connection. Part of what I love most about Wolfeboro is that students come to us with a variety of goals and life experience from all over the globe, but each student inevitably leaves touched by the magic of our community.
When we say that Wolfeboro is an outstanding summer learning experience, we aren’t just talking about academics. Our students experience individualized instruction from our exceptional teaching faculty. Students engage with peers, outdoors and screen-free, for hours at a time, becoming stronger, more independent thinkers through opportunities both in and out of the classroom. Having two dedicated staffs – teaching and residential life – allows us to be intentional in each moment of our day and ensures that students experience daily growth throughout their five weeks with us.
Our commitment to finding joy and community provides an environment for students to take risks and push themselves in the classroom and beyond. Our tried-and-true curriculum, in conjunction with small class sizes, provides a proven academic boost for each student. Whether here at WCS for credit, to strengthen their English skills, to preview a course, or to maintain their momentum after a strong school year, kids leave Wolfeboro having demonstrated resilience and growth, finding parts of themselves they may not have even known existed. How powerful is that?
For those of us who have spent our summers on Rust Pond, we know the uniqueness of Wolfeboro. My wish is to share this place - this experience - with as many students and families as possible. A summer spent at Wolfeboro is a summer well spent.
Please visit our Instagram page to get a sense of why so many folks return to Wolfeboro summer after summer. Schedule a call or a visit - we welcome the opportunity to share more about how our program can act as a perfect summer experience for your child.
With excitement for summer 2025!
