HUNSUMMERPROGRAMSJoin Us!

The Hun Summer School has served a vital purpose for many years by allowing

students both to move ahead in credit courses and sharpen their skills with enrichment

courses during the summer.

Through individual and personalized attention, we meet all students where they are and help

them advance to the next level.

We believe that:

Students love to learn when they are in an environment that takes them

seriously and pushes them beyond their own limitations in a creative way.

Parents and families should feel comfortable and confident with their

children thriving in a healthy, safe, and fun environment.

HUN CAMP

At Hun Camp, we focus on sharing our values of kindness, respect, cooperation and fun with

each and every Hun Camper. From our innovative games, themed weeks, dining hall lunches, to our

culminating talent show and sleepover, we provide a safe environment for campers to unleash their

imagination, build lasting friendships, and capture memories that will last a lifetime. Our veteran

staff of Hun faculty are assisted by aspiring educators, many of whom were campers themselves.

Together, they give campers the ability to push their limits and gain new life skills through

swimmings lessons, organized athletics, and exposure to 21st century education through the Hun

Summer School. The result is a lasting Hun Camp community.

HUN SUMMER SCHOOL

Trips for Boarding Students

Traveling off campus during the five-week session is a major component of the curriculum. Before each trip,

teachers discuss how to get the most from each experience and will assign specific assignments related to the trip.

During the program, students travel throughout the Princeton area and to Philadelphia, New York City, and

Washington, D.C. Last summer, students went rafting in Pennsylvania, visited the Constitution Center in

Philadelphia, and went to a Broadway show and dinner in New York.

Other trips include the annual visit to Hershey Amusement Park and Amish country in Lancaster, Pennsylvania,

and shopping at Woodbury Commons Outlets. The highlight of the program is an overnight weekend trip to

Washington, D.C. Last summer, students visited landmarks including the memorials on the National Mall, the

Crime Museum, and enjoyed dinner at a variety of world-class restaurants.
