Summer School

Go online with Stanbridge this summer

​Stanbridge Academy’s Summer School program helps keep our students’ minds working as they explore and discover new information about the world and themselves in a familiar and nurturing environment. From academics and athletics to outdoor activities and artistic pursuits, there is truly something for everyone.

​Each year, Stanbridge offers a variety of summer courses for students in all divisions, including incoming students. Our Summer School program is scheduled in week-long courses, with each course running Monday through Friday of the specific week. This year, our Summer School will be online 
from 9:00 a.m. to noon with Extended School Year (ESY) courses from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Some courses may build upon each other in multiple weeks, in which case, students are encouraged to enroll in successive weeklong courses. Courses enroll a minimum of five students with a maximum enrollment of eight students (per teacher). Costs are based upon course content.
