Environmental Science Summer Camps

Environmental Science Summer Camps for Kids & Teens

Environmental science summer camps, sometimes called nature summer camps or green summer camps, give elementary, middle, and high school students the opportunity to learn about the unique habitats around them. At environmental science summer camps, kids and teens study nature, conservation, biology, botany, animals, and more. Students learn the principles of 'leave-no-trace' camping and how to care for delicate ecosystems. By the end of the summer, campers make friends, gain self-confidence, and have a better appreciation of the world around them.

Ages, Tuition, and Session Length at Environmental Science Summer Camps

Overnight debate summer camps typically welcome students between the ages of 12 and 18. Campers are traditionally grouped by age and grade level to maximize learning and social opportunities.

Sleep-away debate camps typically run 1 week, 2 week, 3 week, and 4 week sessions. Costs vary considerably by program, location, instructors, and facilities and can range anywhere from $350 to $1,350 per week. Most debate summer camps are hosted at college or university campuses, with some held at traditional summer camps.

Choosing the Best Debate Summer Camp

There are many important questions that families should consider when choosing a debate summer camp. Does the program emphasize mechanics, strategy, or public speaking skills? Where are students housed? What type of certification do teachers and instructors hold? Is the camp purely academic, or are other activities available to campers? Does the program offer credit that can be attributed to high school or college? What level of competition is available at the camp?
