Summer Camp Activities

Five wonderful weeks of camp for kids! Each full day camp offers a unique thematic experience blending language immersion with engaging activities, ensuring a fun and educational summer for entering 1st through 6th graders in a Spanish-immersion environment. They are all taught by ISLA staff. 

Add as many camps to your cart for a single camper, then fill out the photo release form and health waiver. If you have multiple campers, you will complete the same steps for that child. You will receive specific camp information and logistics the week prior to the start of your camp.

ISLA camps are for immersion students and heritage language speakers, with some fluency in Spanish. We do not recommend our full day camps to children with no Spanish language experience.

Half Day Camp is for entering Kindergarten students who want to have an immersion experience. No language skills are needed or required.
