Who can register?

Rising first graders through rising fifth graders may register for Summer at Seneca’s elementary program. Each session is available for specific age ranges. (Rising three-year-olds through rising kindergartners can register for our preschool summer programming!)

    What can we expect?

    Each of our elementary educational programs centers around a different theme! From reading intensives to visual art, and from Spanish to archaeology, there is something for everyone.

    Where does Summer at Seneca take place?

    Summer at Seneca is held on the campus of Seneca Academy in Darnestown, Maryland. Our 6.5-acre National Wildlife Foundation Certified Schoolyard Habitat is an amazing place to learn and grow!

    Why should we register?

    Seneca Academy has been known for more than forty years as a place that provides a rigorous yet developmentally appropriate education while preserving the wonder of childhood. There’s no better time to experience this first-hand than by registering today for our summer program!

    What if I have other questions?

    Please fill out an inquiry form here to ask! We’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

    Seneca Academy is an International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IB PYP) World School that fosters children’s natural curiosity and ignites a love of learning through a collaborative, inquiry-based program in a dynamic and welcoming community.
