The American Heritage Summer Institute is a summer educational program that offers more than 120 enrichment and reinforcement courses specifically designed with student interest and engagement in mind, to students from PK3 through 12th grade. American Heritage Schools’ course offerings are often viewed as the gold standard in college-preparatory education, and the Summer Institute continues that standard.
High school course offerings include advanced test prep, honors and AP level research work, as well as unique pre-professional programs for those interested in future careers in medicine, law or business entrepreneurship. The Summer Institute also offers a wide variety of enrichment and reinforcement programs for Middle School (grades 6-8) and Lower School (PK3 to grade 5) students, as well as one-on-one tutoring options for those looking to enhance their skills and build confidence heading into the new school year.

The summer camp programs are designed for children ages 3 to 14. In addition to the day camp, specialty camps vary by campus, and include robotics, art, science, musical theatre, video production and sports camps. Each camper enjoys age-appropriate activities supervised by American Heritage Schools’ highly qualified staff.
Cabins for ages 3 to 5 are co-ed, while ages 6 to 13 have separate cabins for boys and girls. All cabins, which are classrooms during the school year, are air conditioned, and campers take pride in decorating them to reflect the cabin’s theme. To expand the number of recreational activities available to campers ages 8 to 13, age-appropriate field trips are scheduled. All field trips are supervised by off-campus directors, as well as an appropriate number of counselors. Prior to starting camp, campers will receive a schedule of activities.
American Heritage offers free bus transportation from central locations throughout the tri-county area. The summer camps are directed by state-certified teachers and college or high school students who have been carefully screened by American Heritage Schools. They are well-trained in safety and camp policies.
