The 2026 summer camp season will offer camps from June 15th-July 31st for ages 4-14!
At Camp TPS, summer in the city comes alive through hands-on exploration, creativity, and curiosity. Rooted in the progressive educational approach of The Philadelphia School, 35 programs invite campers to discover their interests, stretch their skills, and build meaningful connections. From daily adventures around the city to a wide range of enrichment camps that dive deep into exciting subjects and activities, every child can find a place to grow, play, and thrive. Whether biking through Philadelphia, exploring art and storytelling, or trying out a new sport, campers experience a summer filled with choice, challenge, and fun.
City Country Day Camps
City Country Day Camp is offered to students currently in preschool through grade 5. Our camp encourages children to broaden their horizons and enjoy the freedom to dabble daringly. Campers will explore Philadelphia, work in the TPS garden, play in our Center City classrooms, and enjoy a community that celebrates and teaches kind, creative, and healthy living.
Enrichment Camps
With more than 30 Enrichment Camps to choose from, everyone can discover individualized programming to bring excitement to their summer days! For those who love camping in the great outdoors, Firekeepers will be just the thing, while those who are drawn to high endurance sports will find our All Star Sports or Ultimate Frisbee camps ideal. Our much anticipated Clay & Cooking program is back, and much, much more!
We are thrilled to announce the continuation of Pizza Fridays at Camp TPS! We are partnering with City Pizza to offer lunch each Friday during summer camp. Lunch will include three slices of pizza and a piece of fruit for $5. Advance sign-up and payment will be available directly through registration.
Camp TPS will be closed on June 19th in observance of Juneteenth and on July 3rd in observance of Independence Day.
Registration is Now Open!
