Summer Camp Proposals
This summer, Great Hearts Lakeside will be offering Summer Athletic Camps for our Upper and Lower scholar-athletes. The goal for these camps, in keeping with the broader mission of Great Hearts Texas, is to help each sports program strive to build a community of young men and women committed to moral, intellectual, and physical excellence. This is also a great opportunity for scholars to grow in friendships with other students at Great Hearts Lakeside and to learn how to participate in a team setting.
It’s important to note that these camps are not all-day camps. For Upper School (grades 6-9), some of our camps are broken down into sessions, a morning and afternoon session. There is no need to sign up your scholar-athlete for two sessions in one day, as the same material will be taught in both sessions. Other Upper School camps only offer one session. For Lower School (grades 1-5), camps are broken down by age groups. Camps are also only four days of the week. You will also see that we have deadlines for signing up for our camps.
Please know, depending on scholar sign-ups and coaching availability, camp availability may be limited. Below you will find information and dates for each camp.
