Not only did she answer in detail she also shared her vision and passion. We decided to sign up for a class and our daughter can't wait to go every week. We have seen marked improvements in her coding and other skills. Her self-esteem and curiosity has also grown as a result. We appreciate when business are really about the kids and not just a babysitting service but a place where the kids are encouraged to grow and thrive. Thank you Priya!

Camp Kirchenwald is literally my favorite place on the planet. While I often feel closer to God…read morewhen I am able to tune out other distractions in nature, it's the people of Camp Kirchenwald that have shaped my faith and the person I am today. I have learned countless lessons about community, service, growth, leadership, and God from Pastor Youse, Winnie, Zach, Mike, my fellow staff members, and our campers. Despite the fact that I have spent the past nine years formally studying education, I learned more about teaching from being a Kirchenwald counselor than all of my coursework combined. I treasure the memories I have of the church in the woods and my Camp Kirchenwald Family, and I carry them with me everyday. I cannot wait to someday send my own children to Kirchenwal

My youngest son is very clingy and hates going to camp - by the third day, he LOVED Hideaway and would run right to his group to start playing. My older son had a bug bite.

They have creek walks, horseback riding, archery, fishing,ropes courses, climbing walls, swimming, and so much more!

This is a fabulous camp! My daughter (now 12) went for the first time last year, on her own without…read moreknowing anyone beforehand, and loved it so much she wanted to come for every session this summer. This is a great, old school outdoor camp. Kids get to choose their activities each day--they can go swimming, catch frogs, play in mud, splash in the Gunpowder River, go canoeing or hiking, etc. It is loosely structured enough that can explore, follow their own interests, and use their imaginations. There are mixed age groups and it's amazing to see how kind and supportive the older kids are to the younger kids. The counselors (mostly former campers I think) are hilarious, energetic, creative, kind. Don, a former teacher who has run the camp for over 40 years, is very thoughtful and reflective and the kids love him. This camp gives kids the space to discover their own confidence, creativity, initiative, and it's really really FUN!!!

Nature Camps is THE "nature camp". For nearly a decade, the highlight of our two daughters' summers…read morehas been attending Nature Camps. Starting with Nature Camps' "Little Feet" program, they have grown through the Day Camp and, for the first time, this past summer, "Teen Adventure". The counselors' skills in facilitating each child's personal development and ability to connect with people and the environment around them are astoundingly spectacular. I've lost count of the time I've found myself using the word "magical" to describe how Nature Camps is able to reveal, respect and develop children's best selves. Pick up and drop off at Nature Camps' rustic, wooded location in Monkton offers parents an opportunity to connect with their children and participate in fun activities like "Big Circle". (The (optional) van service from Greenspring Station and/or ad hoc carpools offers other options for families who'd prefer to reduce their own driving time.) In these ways, Nature Camps' values and opportunities outweigh the factors of cost and convenience. Our family's favorite part of each two-week session is the Family Overnight. Overnight activities include a potluck supper followed by entertainment from campers and staff as well as family and friends followed by activities like as night hikes, crafts, and singing by a campfire. The following morning, parents and younger campers are served breakfast prepared by older campers (and staff).

I have two children who have entered and worked there way through Moravian Academy -- both from…read morekindergarten with the Spanish immersion program. My first daughter had a relatively positive experience when she was in elementary school and is doing well in the high school currently. However, my youngest has had a very negative experience with one teacher in particular: Mr. Yerrington. She had him last year and he was horribly abrasive, rude, and discouraging toward her exploration of her education. She has struggled with self esteem issues with both her ability to speak spanish and engagement in the classroom since. We tried to talk to Moravian about it, but they brushed it off, as they do most things. Be aware of this when selecting MA as your childs future school.

From a parent of a student who attends MA: MA provides a first-rate education. The strength of this…read moreschool is the teachers and three strong administrators, the backbone of MA: the head of the Lower School[preK-5], head of Middle School[ grades 6-8] and The head of the Upper School [grades 9-12]. This school sets a foundation that allows its students to transition easily into highly selective colleges and universities. A higher percentage of students get accepted into highly selective schools versus any counterpart high school in the area. This is also due to MA's college counselor who does a tremendous job matching a student's profile with the right college. Study habits are honed in MA's middle schoool and further tuned in Upper School. MA has very strong math and science teachers. Language and other non-math/science instructors were also very good. I do not recall any unflattering comments about any educator in the school regarding subject matter. All kids complain about something, but never got any negative feedback on educator competence. Also, theatre and performing arts are featured with showcase events that reveal talents of students, a tribute to MA staff, students, and those who organize these events. Other aspects: -Some MA parents can get a bit tiresome. Imagine the NY Times Weekend Style section, or the social pages showing adults mugging for photos at some self-serving fundraiser. Now conjur up in your mind a very low-end junior varsity version of that--think of a Saturday Night Live skit. -MA has turned out its share of athletes that go on to play in D1 programs in college, mostly field hockey players over the past 10 years. However, MA sports could be supported a little better financially, and with encouraged attendance. MA's athletic director--who did a great job--retired. Hopefully the new AD will get more support from the school and sports won't be de-emphasized. All in all, I could not have asked for a better educational outcome for my daughter.

Tanner has the making of a TV personality beyond compare. Kristina is the mother of all mothers- taking the time to talk and interact with the children in attendance. They were actually running up to her just to show what they made or found. Her excitement for them was contagious. Denver was busy keeping the event spaces clear and clean... all the while smiling and helping people navigate the space. And lastly we have Sam who was such a joy during check in. Smiling and so sweet. A great first impression to this event. I would highly recommend checking out an event they hold. ArtFest is coming.. and I can't wait to attend.

There is something magical about this place. The lives that have been touched, both youth and staff, and the connections made. I recommend that parents and guardians send their children to sleep-away camp. The changes that happen in 4-8 weeks are remarkable. Appel Farm has scholarship programs to help pay. And, honestly, if you have the money to donate to the cause, please do. I've seen a youth's life change for the better over and over here. I worked as a staff member years ago. I've recently been back as a non-staff person, just to observe and experience the magic again. If I had children, I'd send them here - and I encourage everyone to consider the skills that the arts can bring to a young person's development into a civic-minded adult.

We signed up for Science Explorers & he has enjoyed it so much that he asked to do a second week! It's all virtual, through Zoom, but a week before they send a box filled with all the items they'll need for the week. Each experiment is prelabeled, in its own bag, & only a very few items are needed from home (like scissors). The instructor is patient & engaging, ensuring the questions are answered and a break is given (it is a 2.5 hour "class"). While my son has needed some help here & there, it is very age appropriate for the group of children who signed up. I seriously recommend Science Explorers to anyone who child loves doing experiments!!
