SummerEdge Experience
Limitless Possibilities
Make This Summer Memorable
SummerEdge is an extension of the magic that happens throughout the school year at McLean School. Maybe it’s a particular project or person, an inspiring activity or intellectual breakthrough, or a feeling, or all of the above — for so many reasons, the SummerEdge experience is like no other. This is the kind of program that campers come back to again and again — to learn and grow in a setting that fosters self-discovery, creativity, connection and confidence. One summer, a lifetime of memories!
It is fulfilling to know that a camper had a great and enjoyable summer while being able to go into the next school year feeling confident about themselves.
My daughter has so many opportunities to learn at SummerEdge as well as a variety of choices for her during afternoon time (like outdoor play or art).
I got a chance to learn how much fun chemistry and biology can really be! I had so much fun and can’t wait to go back next summer.
