Dallas International School\u2019s six-week program blends academics, creativity and hands-on learning for ages 3\u201317 \n<\/p>\n

For families mapping out summer plans, finding a program that balances structure, creativity and flexibility can be a challenge. Dallas International School\u2019s six-week summer camp is designed to bring those elements together, offering a customizable experience for children ages 3 through 17 that adapts to a wide range of interests and schedules.<\/p>\n

With both full-day and half-day options available, the program allows parents to build a summer routine that works, while giving students the opportunity to explore new subjects, develop skills and stay engaged throughout the season.<\/p>\n

A Camp Built Around Choice<\/p>\n

Rather than following a single track, the program is designed to give students the ability to move between different areas of interest.<\/p>\n

Campers can spend part of their day in creative disciplines like pottery, photography and video production, then transition into music-focused sessions that include studio time, piano lessons or band. Language learning is also a core component, with options in French, Spanish, Mandarin and English as a second language, allowing students to strengthen communication skills while experiencing a more global approach to education.<\/p>\n

This mix of structured learning and creative exploration gives the program a rhythm that feels varied and engaging rather than repetitive.<\/p>\n

STEM, Creativity And Real-World Skills<\/p>\n

In addition to arts and language offerings, the camp places a strong emphasis on STEM-based learning. Students can explore subjects like biology, physics, math and robotics in a setting that encourages curiosity and experimentation. These sessions are balanced with hands-on activities that focus on practical skills, including cooking, jewelry creation, crochet and chess, areas that introduce both creativity and problem-solving in a more applied way.<\/p>\n

Together, these experiences create a well-rounded environment where academic concepts and everyday skills develop side by side.<\/p>\n

Designed With Working Families In Mind<\/p>\n

Flexibility extends beyond the curriculum into the daily schedule. Families can choose between half-day and full-day enrollment, with full-day campers receiving lunch as part of the program at no additional cost. For those needing extended coverage, early drop-off begins at 7:30 a.m., and pick-up is available as late as 6 p.m., making the program a practical option for working parents managing full-day schedules.<\/p>\n

What To Know Before You Enroll<\/p>\n

The camp is organized across two campuses based on age group. Children ages 3 to 10 attend sessions at the Churchill campus, while students 11 and older participate at the Waterview campus. This structure allows programming to be tailored more closely to each age group, creating a more appropriate and engaging experience for younger children and teens alike.<\/p>\n

Registration is now open, and availability may vary depending on program selection and timing.<\/p>\n
