Summer Schools &
Camps
S
More than 100 years ago, the
English poet, Alfred Tennyson, wrote, "In the spring a young man's fancy
lightly turns to thoughts of love." Today, for our middle school
students, one could add: cherry blossoms, baseball, or summer vacation.
Meanwhile, our young man's, or woman's parents might be thinking about which
summer experience will be best for their child(ren)?
With that in mind, we would like to offer the following sites for your
consideration. The first three are guides or directories to hundreds of
possibilities or summer activities for middle school aged children. Please
note some sites list only telephone numbers or e-mail addresses. The
succeeding specific sites for middle school students serve as examples only, and
are not necessarily recommended by ASIJ.
