Visit us!

Please contact us anytime to schedule a tour of camp spaces with one of our Directors by emailing summer-programs@missporters.org.

Though Miss Porter’s School is a residential high school during the school year, we invite visitors to tour our camp spaces and get a feel for our campus. See where your camper will check-in with their group each morning, eat lunch, play games, and engage in various activities.

Sign up for more information about all that summer has to offer!

Join us for an information session and to receive access to early bird registration for 2026.
