Summer Safari campers at the National Zoo explore the lives, habitats, and conservation of animals around the world. Week-long sessions include exciting hands-on activities, craft projects, science experiments, and walks through the Zoo (but there is never direct contact with the animals). Classes are lead by teachers & naturalists.

Georgetown Day School is pleased to offer a variety of camps and classes for the greater Washington, DC community! Whether you are already familiar with GDS, live in the neighborhood, or you’re just visiting for a while, we welcome your whole family to participate in our camps and classes!

If you're looking for something for your children, we offer Break Camps for children during most school holidays; Summer Programs throughout the summer; and a variety of classes and workshops on weekends during the school year.

If you're looking for something for yourself, consider enrolling in one of our adult classes or workshops. You never know what you'll learn!

We hope to see you soon!

ABOUT OUR SUMMER CAMPS

Camps for Campers age 5 to 5th Grade

GDS offers a range of camps for children age 5 to grade 5. Choose from our ever-popular Hopper Day Camp, which runs weekly for 9 weeks of the summer, our sports camps (MultiSports, Soccer, and Basketball), our touch-typing, or Hop Into Math Camp or our Dance and Music programs, including a beginning orchestra camp and Hopper Dance Camp.

What sets us apart? Our camp sizes are small and our staff are trained teachers or professionals in their fields. The largest camp we run includes 40 campers divided into groups no larger than 12 campers, with typical size ranging to about 8 campers per group.

Camps and Summer Programs for Middle and High School Students

If you’re looking for a summer program for your middle or high school student, we offer unique, educational, creative, and most of all, fun, programming.

Whether your middle schooler wants to design his or her own camp, dance with members of Dana Tai Soon Burgess & Co., compose his or her own musical masterpiece, learn to debate, or create his or her own film, GDS is the place to be!

High Schoolers may choose to participate in the IMPACT Summer Theater Experience combining service and acting, playwriting, or Tech Theater, or one of our summer service programs. Experienced dancers benefit from one-on-one instruction with DTSB&Co. in our summer dance intensive.

Summer at St. Patrick's invites children to engage in their favorite activities, wonder about the world around them, and create their own vision of summer bliss. In designing the 2013 program, we've relied in large part on the children's own descriptions of their ideal summer and enthusiasm for sports, the arts, science, swimming & cooking. Physical activity is included daily throughout the program, beginning in Nursery School and extending to Summer Seniors and Specialty Camps. In addition, students can engage in tennis, fencing, and dance in After-Camp Explorations.

Since 1986, The Studio Theatre Acting Conservatory has offered a Young Actors program. The curriculum provides disciplined, process-oriented training for young actors (ages 12 – 17) with or without prior experience or training.

This summer, we are launching our newly expanded full-day summer program. Registered students are carefully placed based on their auditions enabling our instructors to develop individual students to their fullest potentials.
