Waterfront Academy and Camp Aventura were featured in the March issue of Northern Virginia Magazine in an article titled, "How to Choose the Best Summer Camp for Your Child."
For children under age 6, Melissa Rohan, president and founder of Waterfront Academy in Southwest DC, suggests starting with basic objectives, like the amount of care needed, your child’s specific interests, and location. However, when a student is older, sometimes choosing a summer camp can become a fun family activity. “Have a conversation regarding summer camps and get [your child’s] input on things like friends, activities, themes, and interests, which are probably going to be their top priorities,” says Rohan, who is also the founder of Camp Aventura, a Spanish-immersion summer camp in DC for children ages 3 to 12. “Ultimately, make sure the camp is also satisfying your objectives.”
