Harvard on the Main Line

“I have a conviction that a few weeks spent in a well organized summer camp may be of more value educationally than a whole year of formal school work.” - Charles Eliot, former President of Harvard University

It’s always nice when the hallowed halls of America’s oldest university validate that which you’ve known instinctively for years on end.  For more than 30 years the directors and staff of Julian Krinsky Camps & Programs have seen this sort of personal growth that just isn’t possible in a typical classroom.  Students demonstrate leadership, hone critical analysis and identify areas of true passion in no more than a few short weeks.  Traditional logic will testify to the impossibility of such substantial strides in this trivial time frame, but experience proves the contrary.  Fortune blessed us with the opportunity to witness this progress every summer and we look forward to engendering these exciting, new possibilities for many years to come.
