New for Summer 2026
Rising Grades 3-9
From June 22–26, 2026, The Elisabeth Morrow School will host New Jersey’s inaugural AI Summer Institute, an artificial intelligence intensive for all area rising third- through ninth-grade students. This high-quality project-based program is developed and taught by Stanford, MIT, and Ivy League alumni and graduate students.
AGE 2–GRADE 1
Our youngest students enjoy a structured, classroom-based program of up to 16 students led by certified teachers. Activities are based around a new theme each week, with lots of opportunities for water play, playground time, and nature study on our beautiful 14-acre campus. Half and full-day options are available.
GRADES 2–6
Students entering second through sixth grades enjoy week-long workshops in the morning (such as jewelry making, woodworking, coding, sports, outdoor adventures, animation, and many more), and can choose new activities each afternoon. Half and full-day options are available.
GRADES 7-9
Older students become our Leaders in Training. This intensive three-week course develops strong leadership skills through exercises and challenges. Each Leader in Training completes a First Aid/CPR course and an American Camping Association online course in youth leadership.

Our Leaders in Training program follows a less structured schedule as we work to develop participants’ self-confidence and basic leadership skills. Teens get hands-on training with younger students and participate in a variety of exercises and challenges. Participants complete a First Aid/CPR course and the American Camping Association online course in youth development.
