Burlington Little School
Fun and learning don't stop when the school year ends. Burlington Little School offers our special summer programs, organized as a series of one-week, themed "camps" for ages 3-8. Our variety of exciting camps allows students to choose the times and topics that work best for them. Many of our students want to take them all!
The child-centered, hands-on learning standards which form the core of our school-year curriculum are used to create the summer programs. Play, fun, and experimentation, partnered with rich learning environments, great teachers, and small class size make the summer program a hugely popular offering each year.
