One Hamptons summer they'll never forget.

Children at Alpha Summer in the Hamptons

Whether you've been watching Alpha for a year or you've never heard of us — this summer is the easiest way to find out what every Hamptons family is about to be talking about.

Ages

Pre-K (age 4) through rising 9th grade

Dates

June 29 – August 28

morning academics

Two hours. Top 1%. Then they're free.

Alpha students cover 2× the material in half the time of traditional school. Not because we push harder — because AI-powered learning means every minute is aimed at what your kid needs next. The result: our classes consistently rank in the top 1–2% nationally.

Here's what that means for your summer

  1. Mornings (2 hours)

    Personalized academics in math, reading, and science.

  2. By 11:45am

    Your kid has done more academic work than a full day at their current school.

  3. Afternoons

    The Odyssey begins.

  4. End of summer

    You get a full academic progress report. They don’t just come home tan — they come home ahead.

The Afternoon Story

Afternoons are an Odyssey.

Every week at Alpha Summer follows a story arc — our Summer Odyssey — where kids take on real challenges, work with real craftspeople, and earn real wins. No worksheets. No “arts & crafts.”

Ninja Warrior Course

Kids train all week. On Friday, they compete.

Beach & Pool Access

Built into the schedule — not a once-a-week field trip.

Workshop with Fluō

Our master carpenter runs the shop. Kids leave having built something they’re proud of.

Odyssey Challenges

Weekly team quests where the whole cohort has skin in the game.

Plus rotating guest partners — chefs, athletes, makers, and craftspeople — the kind of people you'd normally have to know someone to meet.

43%

of Alpha students say they'd rather be at Alpha than on vacation.

That's the bar. The afternoon is a big reason why.

Every Friday

Fridays, you're invited.

Every Friday at Alpha Summer, parents join us on campus for Two-Hour Learning in action. You'll:

Watch your kid present what they built that week.

Meet the guides, the carpenter, the coaches.

See the AI learning platform the way your kid uses it.

Connect with the other Hamptons families in the cohort.

The best answer to “is this actually different?” we can give you:

Come see it.

Take-Home Proof

You'll see the proof, in writing.

Every family receives a personalized academic plan at the end of every week — exactly what your kid worked on, where they're growing, and a 12-month projection of where this pace takes them.

It's the kind of detail most schools don't give you in a year.

Behind the Themes

The Odyssey, week by week.

Every Friday culminates in a Showcase — the real-stakes finale each week is built around. Pick a week to see exactly what kids will be making, building, and learning.

Week 1

Survivor

Summary

A Survivor-style challenge kicks off the summer, setting the tone for teamwork, strategy, and outdoor problem-solving. Younger students produce the maps the tribes will use; older students build the vessels that carry them between challenge stations.

The Showcase

A multi-tribe Survivor competition running across immunity challenges, reward challenges, and a final tribal council. Tribes use student-made maps to navigate the course and student-made boats for any water legs.

Per-Level Challenge

LL

Cartography & map making — maps used live during the TTP.

L1

Cartography skills + model boat.

L2

Boat making (functional, person-carrying).

MS

Boat making (functional, person-carrying).

Book Your Weeks

9 Weeks. 9 Themes. One epic summer.
