Our student body includes motivated middle and upper school students, who take courses to challenge themselves academically, meet graduation requirements, enter Honors or AP tracks, prepare for college, learn new crafts, and pursue personal enrichment.
Students who study with Newman Summer complete one-at-a-time courses in focused environments. Many come to experience Newman's unique educational environment, often in courses unavailable during the academic year.
In so doing, they fortify their transcripts, create more flexibility within their term-time academic programs, and learn hobbies to last a lifetime.
“I think my sons rather enjoyed the challenges [Newman Summer] offered… I give your program a thumbs up, and applaud Newman for trying to occupy this age group in a positive way during the long summer.”
- Kathleen Opotowsky, Parent
Newman Summer provides faculty with teaching opportunities that allow them to experiment with new materials and methods and promotes exchange with our sister schools in the area. As such, our community of educators and learners is vibrantly different every year, with all participants engaged in meaningful and exciting activity throughout the summer.
For 2010, we have significantly expanded our offerings, particularly for middle school-aged children. Planned alongside Newman Summer’s day and sports camps, our robust and diverse schedule gives interested families many options for full-day programs in both June and July.
The summer program at Newman is a great way to take phenomenal courses that wouldn't normally be available during the regular school year. That and the dedicated faculty make it a truly wonderful experience.
