Preschool –12th Grade

A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Welcome to our exciting Summer 2023 Programs Guide!

With spring just around the corner, we are looking forward with enthusiasm to all things SUMMER. The season always brings with it my favorite activities: being outside in the sunshine, swimming, and traveling. It’s also a great time to learn something new or focus on a passion. We want LCDS to be your go-to for summer fun and learning!

This guide to summer at LCDS includes more programming than ever before, and we have offerings for all ages from preschool through 12th grade. “Camp LCDS” has expanded to include students entering Kindergarten through 5th grade. We are excited to launch a collaboration with Popovsky Performing Arts Studio to bring you summer theater performance camps from students entering 1st through 12th grade! Our popular “Courses for Credit” continue this summer and of course we will transform LCDS into Hogwarts (potions, wands, wizards, and magical creatures included!), there’s bound to be a match for your student.

Please peruse and get planning! We’re looking forward to having you at LCDS.

Sincerely,

Heather Woodbridge Director of Auxiliary Programs

The Specialty Camps are geared toward students in a variety of grades and offer a more in-depth experience in a specialized class or topic.

Camp LCDS consists of half-day or full-day progrmas for students entering kindergarten through 5th grade. Each week has a child-centered theme with options ranging from science to art to water play.

Lancaster Country Day School offers year-round Preschool and Junior Kindergarten.

LCDS Preschool and Junior Kindergarten students enrolled for the 2022-23 school year are eligible for early registration. Any remaining spaces will be open to new students who fit our admission requirements.

*Students must be 3 years old by June 20, 2023 in order to enroll.

Meaningful play is a significant element of learning at LCDS Summer Programs. It encompasses social, emotional, physical, and cognitive benefits that the brain needs to fully develop. Meaningful play also promotes social learning through play with other children. Each child is challenged to live to their full potential in an atmosphere that fosters social, physical, intellectual, and emotional aspects of development.

ABOUT THIS CAMP:

Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, with great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, this enthralling fairy tale still warms the hearts of children and adults alike.

In this specially created Youth Edition, all the beloved songs and familiar characters are present and accounted for. However, the entire script has been condensed to better suit young attention spans, and the plot has been slightly altered to highlight some important lessons for contemporary audiences.

The outrageous, uproarious, and gloriously entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake will delight casts and audiences as they search for the Holy Grail and “always look on the bright side of life.”

If inappropriate behavior continues, the student may be dismissed from the program.

If a student is dismissed from the program, they will not be permitted to participate for the remainder of the summer.
