The school was founded in 2003 and occupies two campuses in the East Side of Manhattan. The school’s ideology is centered on enabling each student to become a confident and successful learner.
The Summer Arts Program will include art, cooking and field trips to museums, parks and green markets. The camp will be led by trained Aaron School staff and will cater to each child’s needs and interests. According to the Aaron Summer Arts Program Director, “Our Summer Arts Program promises to offer enriching activities that provide participants with a means to recreation and are likely to produce teachable moments as well. Our staff is well-trained in providing special education and will strive to accommodate each child’s interests and needs in order to make the summer camp a meaningful and memorable experience for each one of them.”

The Summer Arts Program will be held over two sessions. The first session called ‘The Great Outdoors’ will be conducted from July 13, 2015 to July 24, 2015 whereas the second session termed ‘Wild Style’ will be held from July 27, 2015 to August 7, 2015.
The Summer Arts program will help provide new fall students an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the school building, teachers and school routine. The special education camp will offer a structured and supported environment to students for enabling peer interactions among participants from different schools and regions.

The camp aims to cater to the special needs of participants with an effective small student-teacher ratio which is geared towards enabling teachers to focus on specialized activities to meet the interests of the students.
