Summer Camps

Anatomy

Have you ever thought of becoming a doctor? Discover the anatomy of various structures by watching animal dissections, explore the structure of the human skeleton, and conduct at-home experiments on your own body! Learn the basic anatomy and physiology that all doctors must master.
Instructor: Ms. Kris Amatuli
Grade Level: Rising 8th, 9th, & 10th

Engineering Adventures at Home

Does the idea of creating something new excite you? Do you dream of making a positive impact on the world? Unleash your inner engineer by using online software, engaging in hands-on projects, and exploring various engineering disciplines. Whether you want to design amazing structures, invent cool gadgets, or solve problems to help your community, this camp is right for you. Embark on a journey into the exciting world of engineering and become a superhero of change!

Participating students will need a computer capable of running the Bridge Designer software.

Instructor: Dr. Dimitra Michalaka
Grade Level: Rising 8th, 9th, & 10th

Sports Science

Do you love anatomy and physiology? Do you have a passion for sports or fitness? If you answered yes, then Sports Science might just be the class for you! By using applied anatomy and physiology to study what happens to the body under normal conditions, you will discover how your body responds to exercise, the causes of fatigue, and the science of recovery—all while having fun! We will also study proper biomechanics and investigate what can happen when our bodies don’t work the way they should. You can even apply what you learn to make yourself a better, smarter athlete!
Instructor: Mrs. Kris Amatuli
Grade Level: Rising 8th, 9th, & 10th

STEM's Greatest Hits

Calling all STEM enthusiasts and explorers of science! Are you someone who is always asking "why" or "how" something works? Let your imagination and creativity inspire you as we take you on a journey exploring some of STEM’s greatest hits! Throughout this week-long adventure, you will do hands-on activities and experiments to explore the chemistry of water, the human eye, optical illusions, creating a cotton ball launcher and so much more. Get ready for an amazing adventure through the exciting world of STEM!
Instructor: Mrs. Robin Dantzler
Grade Level: Rising 6th & 7th

Transportation Engineering Explorers

Have you ever wanted to look behind the curtain at how our roads and transportation systems are managed? Who or what decides when the traffic signal turns green? Why do some places have bike lanes and nice sidewalks while others don’t? And are we really ready for self-driving cars? Get ready to discover what it means to be a transportation engineer! Throughout the week, we will complete plenty of hands-on activities and group projects while exploring the world of transportation engineering. Join us and dive into the future of how society moves!
