Summer Programs

Summer Enrichment Programs

Our vibrant summertime program highlights:

  • Be completely immersed in one subject.
  • Concentrate on a favorite area of study.
  • Acquire new skills.
  • Take Advanced Placement classes in following years.
  • Pursue a class that is not offered during the year. Typically, classes are the equivalent of a full one-year course at Seton Hall Prep, though occasionally there are mini-courses offered as well.
  • Because classes meet so intensively for a short duration, no more than two absences are permitted for any reason.
