What will you do with your summer? Many of us will take time to travel to visit with family and friends. Others will choose to catch up on the extra sleep maybe lost during the busy school year. But what will you do when the traveling is done and you’ve gotten all the extra sleep you need? I have the answer for you! Come join us for a Charlotte Christian School summer camp. While attending camp you can learn, play and explore in the areas of athletics, fine arts and enrichment. Each of these areas will provide you with an opportunity to expand your horizons.

Charlotte Christian School strives to meet the needs of the whole child - heart, mind, body, and soul. As educators, we know that this is a continual process. It is our desire to provide students with opportunities to excel outside the classroom. Our summer programs will provide students with opportunities to expand their horizons spiritually, emotionally, and physically while integrating biblical truth into the daily learning of the campers.

Our sports camps will allow students to sharpen their skills and solidify the fundamentals of the game. Our enrichment camps will capture the imagination and spark creativity for learning. Whether it is creating and designing your own special cake, exploring dinosaurs, or enjoying a week full of legos, each day will hold something new.

Whether you would like to attend camp for one week or for many weeks, there are a variety of camps available that will peak the interest of students who love to learn, play and explore. We hope that you will come spend time with us this summer as we expand our horizons together.

In Christ,
