Parents:  Our programs provide a safe, academic enrichment experience for your child during the summer months.  Our students continually achieve a high level of academic advancement every summer.  We use nationally and regionally recognized evidence-based curriculum in all programs, which are experiential in nature and rely heavily on project-based learning activities.
