Great school however it's not diverse as i would like it. However I have not had any problems and they really love my grandson and he loves Mrs. Roche and Miss Josie ....

This camp was a major disappointment, especially for the price parents pay. The kids don’t receive healthy meals, and some days they don’t even get enough food. The way certain counselors treat the children is concerning, and some interactions felt biased and unprofessional. It’s also upsetting that these issues were brought to the owner’s attention and nothing was addressed. The staff seem overworked and undervalued, and overall the environment feels run-down and poorly managed. This was our first and definitely our last summer here. The special event days were poorly organized, nothing felt thoughtful or memorable, and it’s clear the owner isn’t investing in making this camp better. Unfortunately, it’s just not worth it.

Ivy League is an amazing camp. I went there for a decade and my children have now gone for years. The staff is amazing and nurturing. The owners and management are devoted and forward thinking. The kids are sweet, considerate to one another and have an amazing time. Everyone cries at the end of the summer; it is always joyful and sad at once. I feel extremely secure knowing my kids are at Ivy League and that our investment of time and money pays dividends in their personal development.

Ivy League school and day camp has been great for our family! Our child has been in the school since the 3s program, and the camp since the 4s and is currently enrolled in Kindergarten. First and foremost, the teachers and the staff at the school are so kind and loving. The entire school is very family-oriented, giving a sense of "home" when you are walking around the campus and interacting with the staff. The grounds are meticulous and the classrooms are very clean. Many of the classrooms, including the preschool classrooms, even have smart boards. Since nursery school, my son has taken enrichment classes like Spanish, Mandarin, Science, Art, Music and Chorus. The playgrounds are great and they are able to utilize some of the other play areas around the campus as well during recess. They even get to swim in the warmer months. It's been a great place to learn and grow for my son! The camp is tons of fun as well! He comes home everyday with great stories and photos of what he did during the day. He loves the swim time and all the games and activities they play during the day. I especially love when we get to visit the camp for the day and see all the great things the kids are doing with their counselors! And the end of the summer party is a blast for all ages as well! Ivy League has been great place for us, and we look forward to many more years ahead!

My three children have been attending Ivy League since 2004. They have had such wonderful and memorable experiences at the camp. My last one is entering the teen travel program and he is so excited. The counselors and division leaders are great. Ivy League has kept my kids busy and happy for many summers.
