Cardigan’s Summer Session offers a vibrant mix of academic and extracurricular activities designed to inspire and engage students. Mornings are dedicated to hands-on, experiential learning across diverse subjects, including ceramics, forensics, creative writing, coding, and wilderness survival, along with traditional offerings like SSAT Prep and English as a second language. Wallach, our innovative makerspace, serves as a hub for design, engineering, and creative arts, preparing students for academic success beyond the summer. With a low student-faculty ratio, classes are personalized to meet individual needs. Afternoons and evenings feature activities such as mountain biking, hiking, paddle boarding, tennis, drama, and model rocketry, all set against the stunning New Hampshire mountains. Students entering 10th grade can participate in our Leadership Program, focusing on teamwork, goal-setting, and mentorship, as they guide younger peers. Many students return year after year to reconnect with friends and deepen their bond with this special community. Parents frequently share stories of their children’s growth, independence, and self-confidence upon returning home.
