Specialty summer camps for children who learn differently.
Miriam School and Learning Center provides campers entering grades K-12 with fun opportunities to maintain or improve reading, writing, speech, and social/emotional skills in our specialty summer camps. Small groups, research-based interventions, and certified/licensed professionals ensure campers receive the individual instruction and attention they need to improve self-confidence and build skills.
Let us help set your child up for success with academic, therapeutic, executive function, and social/emotional skills! Most camps are for those entering grades K-8, with a special "Circle of Friendship" social skills camp for high school students.
Mix and match one or two camps per session to make a half- or full-day camp experience. Morning sessions run from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and afternoon sessions operate from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. Campers participate in a supervised lunch from 11 a.m. to noon when they attend a morning and afternoon camp in the same session.
