Mustang
Summer Specialty Classes
Returning for the summer of 2025 are specialized mini-camps that allow students unique opportunities to create and express themselves. The specialty classes are open to everyone except where limited by grade. Students at NLR for Mustang Summer Camp will be guided to NLR specialty camps.
New for 2025, summer specialty mini-camps return for Secondary students. Our teachers are offering both creative and academic courses for our students. We have tried to time these courses so students can complete athletic camps in the morning and then head to the specialty camps of their choice.
All summer classes must meet registration minimums in order to take place. If you sign up for a class and it does not meet minimum registration requirements, we will contact you and your payment will be refunded.
