Who We Are

Dwight Summer Day Camp embraces the same philosophy as Dwight School, which customizes the experience for each student based on individual interests and passions. We call this igniting the “spark of genius” in every child. Through a wide range of age-appropriate programs ― including our specialty “spark” camps ― children can explore, discover what they enjoy doing, and pursue that passion while also making friends and having fun.

Our Team

An outstanding staff is critical to maintaining the highest standards at Dwight’s Summer Day Camp. Our staff has years of experience and expertise in the industry, and has crafted programs for your children that reflect the Dwight philosophy. The result is a camp that provides a fun and safe environment where each camper can nurture his or her passion, make friends, and grow.
