About us
Sidwell Summer is the place for parents and kids who value creative freedom, personal acceptance and enriching fun. As the summer arm of the Sidwell Friends Schools, Sidwell Summer believes every child should be seen and loved exactly as they are. Sidwell Summer prides itself on shaking loose the tight academic structure of the school year and giving kids the grace to explore themselves through new activities and experiences. Sidwell Summer’s goal is for kids and parents to walk away from camp, saying, “I don’t know what I loved more, the programs or how safe and loved my child felt there.” Sidwell Summer aspires to be a second home for your family, with more activities and expertise than one typically finds in their own backyard. Sidwell Summer offers athletic programs, like soccer and baseball, handwork programs, and niche programs, like coding and legos! When you pick Sidwell Summer, you choose consistent faces, a familiar space, and endless variety within.

A beautiful picture and sentiment! Especially for those of us in youth development and education… we are all works in progress and those broken or undeveloped parts or rough edges are just growth points waiting to be smoothed or created! As a Quaker institution, we also know to value the light in each of us! 😎 Sidwell Summer is having a wonderful Summer 2014 celebrating the light 🌞 in all of our participants and staff! From our littlest Discovery Day Camp Juniors and DEAN Adventure Camps Playful Explorers to our oldest middle and high school students finding new passions in our STEP and Summer Equity and Justice Institute - find your light! Cheers for a wonderful rest of your summer! If you need some more adventures or ways to shine your light - Sidwell Summer has 4 more weeks of programming left (until August 9th) - come join us! #independentschools #summerprograms #auxiliaryprograms #GrowthMindset #LeadershipDevelopment
