LAWRENCEVILLE SUMMER SCHOLARS JULY 7 - JULY 27, 2019
6th - 10th Grade
JOIN US AS A BOARDER!
Live for three weeks in a historic House and enjoy boarding school life. Some residential students have roommates while others have single rooms (this is dependent on age and grade, as well as House design). Boarding students take meals in the dining hall and study in the evenings with their housemates. Evening activities include athletics and sports, as well as movies, talent shows, bonfires, and games, such as human tic-tac-toe and scavenger hunts. Boarding students travel as a group each weekend to nearby places like the Statue of Liberty and Six Flags amusement park.
