Item Description

Science, Projects, Arts and Robotics for Kids to Learn Everywhere (SPARKLE) is an extracurricular program designed to raise raise your child’s enthusiasm for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM). Sparkle’s first goal is to teach and review STEM concepts outside of the classroom through fun and engaging projects. 

Each session (which spans two weeks - Monday through Friday) of our summer program is focused on a scientific discipline that your child will spend a few hours per day learning about through developmentally-appropriate activities and projects. All campers will learn the basics of a scientific concept or theory. Through experiments and projects in small groups, our staff will guide your student to follow their natural curiosity by trying to find the scientific explanation to what they are observing. 

The Sparkle Program is open to children of all genders and backgrounds.
