STEM/ACADEMIC PROGRAMS Grades 3 – 12 Our STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs allow students to explore subjects that pique their natural curiosity through hands-on learning experiences.

Morning and afternoon sessions are available. Combine two camps to create a full-day option.
