Summer Camp and Summer Arts
Several camp options are available during summer vacation. (Click links on the left-hand menu.) Summer Camp
is offered to preschoolers through 2nd graders who swim, take trips,
play games, create art projects, have guest visitors and learn new
skills under the guidance of experienced teachers. Third through 9th
graders may enroll in the Summer Arts program and learn from
professional artists and teachers in a variety of fields, such as
theater arts, music, creative writing, woodworking, filmmaking,
technology, and visual arts. The program also offers swimming, field
trips, and just plain fun!
Afterschool Programs for Preschool-Grade 8
Brooklyn Friends School is committed to meeting the scheduling needs of today’s working families and to offering children a variety of exciting specialty classes in their afterschool hours. Our comprehensive afterschool program provides safe, nurturing, and age- appropriate care and activities for children in preschool through grade 8 from 3 to 6 pm daily.
Afterschool programs are not included in tuition. The cost varies depending on the hours and specialty classes.
The afterschool program for preschool children meets in a preschool classroom, providing continuity for the children’s school-day activities. Lower school children may participate in playgroups, homework club or homework clinic, and specialty classes that keep them productive and busy throughout the afternoon. There are many specialty classes that the children may choose from, such as chess, art, music, dance, hands-on science, knitting, French, Spanish, and recreational sports. The middle school program offers study hall and homework clinic as well as specialty classes in chess, multimedia, and documentary film-making.
