Looking for a fun learning adventure in the heartland this summer? Look no further than the Summer Experience at Wayland Academy—July 7 through July 20, 2024!

The Summer Experience at Wayland is the perfect summer program for middle and high school students! It is a well-rounded two-week program that includes academic enrichment, outdoor activities, leadership skill-building, character development, and much more. 

During the program, students entering grades 8-11 will have the opportunity to

• Meet and connect with other students from Wisconsin, the U.S., and around the world
• Visit nearby cities and universities—including a trip to Milwaukee, the Kohler Museum, and the University of Wisconsin
• Get outside and explore—including geocaching, visiting places like the Horicon Marsh, or rowing on Beaver Dam Lake
• Expand their academic knowledge in writing, ethics, and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics)
• Enhance their leadership skills and character development
• Spark new interests, passions, and discover their potential
• Enjoy evening activities—including outdoor movies, scavenger hunts, game night, bonfires, and a dance
• Live away from home (in our brand new dormitory) and experience independence in a safe community
• Earn .25 elective credit (for current or future Wayland students)

Students will also have the privilege of spending their days (and living) on the beautiful 55-acre campus of Wayland Academy in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, perfect for summer activities. Students will have complete access to campus, including classrooms, the library, and sports facilities.

At Wayland, we believe that education should be fun and engaging. That’s why the Summer Experience includes a wide range of activities for students to enjoy. From outdoor adventures to team-building exercises, our program is designed to keep students engaged and entertained throughout their stay.
