Dear Families, 

Welcome to our Summer Program. 

For more than 50 years, Newark Academy has provided exceptional academic and enrichment programs for young people. We are proud to offer over 250 classes, camps and activities for students entering Kindergarten to Grade 12. The expertise of our faculty and the flexibility to design the program that meets your child’s needs and your family’s schedule are the hallmarks of our program.

We are excited to highlight some of our offerings.

Mott-Leeney Baseball Camp- encouraging student-athletes, ages 5-13, to explore their passion for baseball while receiving top-notch instruction at one of the finest athletic facilities in the region. Additional information is available here. 

Newark Academy Athletic Camps - taking advantage of our exceptional athletic facilities and led by Newark Academy coaches, these camps are week-long offerings designed to welcome athletes onto our campus. You can review the schedule and read more about the options here.

JTole Summer Jazz Camp- The JTole Summer Jazz Camp is a one-of-a-kind experience for students in 6th grade to 12th grade who want to study jazz or start playing jazz. More information about this program is available here. 

We are committed to meet the needs of our families and proud that our program has continued to grow and flourish each summer. We welcomed more than 1,600 students safely onto our campus last summer and anticipate doing so again for this coming year. We invite you to be a part of the growing Newark Academy summer community.
