Carolina Friends School summer programs and school break camps invite students to explore new passions and foster personal growth in a supportive environment infused with Quaker values. Set on a beautiful 126-acre wooded campus, the programs offer a wide range of hands-on experiences designed to spark intellectual curiosity and encourage playful expression. With some 150 unique courses offered each summer, campers can explore the subjects that excite them most—such as digital arts, theater, creative writing, music, science, outdoor adventures, athletics, and more.
Campers spend their days engaging in projects and activities that encourage both individual exploration and teamwork. They might cook alongside a chef, design a comic book, or experiment with robotics and math puzzles. Skilled instructors—including many who teach at Carolina Friends School during the academic year—guide campers through activities with enthusiasm, expertise, and care.
Founded in Quaker values, Carolina Friends School programs are inspired by values of respect, ethics, and community, creating a welcoming space where every child feels included and encouraged to be a force for good and seek a life of purpose.
