Join us at Great River School for Summer Camp in 2026!
Our camps are a fun way for your camper to spend a week exploring, building, learning, moving, creating, and having a blast. At GRS, we treat each other and our environment with respect, and we are focused on being safe while having fun. We are open to all people from everywhere. No Montessori or Great River School experience necessary to have a great summer here.
The majority of our camps are led by trained, full-time GRS staff members. All GRS Camps run Monday-Thursday (except for the 1st week). Half-day camp hours are 9am-12pm and 1pm-4pm. You can combine a morning session with an afternoon session to make it a full day with lunch and recess included! Full-day camps run from 9pm-4pm. You can come for a week of morning sessions or be with us all summer!

We still design our camps by grade instead of age. We’ll have camps for Pre-K/K (MUST be potty trained and minimum of 4 years old), 1st-3rd, 4th-7th, and 7th-10th. When registering, use the grade your camper is entering for the fall of 2026.
We have a variety of camps such as *Ultimate Frisbee, Road Biking, *Volleyball, Ninja Camp, Sailing Fridays, Art, Theatre, Lego Robotics, and more. *These camps meet offsite.
We are dedicated to making summer camp possible and affordable for ALL through our early-bird pricing, sibling discount, multi-program discounts and our Pay What You Can program.
