Students participating in Engineering Explorations day camp will be exposed to various disciplines of engineering in a fun and exciting environment!  They will be taught STEM principles within innovative hands-on projects.  Students will document their learning in an "engineering portfolio" filled with activities and rigorous STEM content that they will complete throughout camp. They also keep ALL projects they fabricate!  These include a marble run, water-powered rockets, and solar-powered fan in the Foundations of STEM course. Solar-powered cars, model skyscrapers, and roller coasters in the Engineering Design course.  Students get to design their own T-shirt and sticker designs in the 3D Prototyping and Graphic Design course. In addition, they fabricate alarm circuits, robotic circuits, and learn Arduino programming in the Robotics: Fabrication and Programming course.  Students will get to enjoy the summer weather each day during their “technology recess” where they will get to fly quad-copter drones, drive RC cars, play vintage video games, and examine the latest technologies such as virtual reality.  We strive to build not only your child’s academic skills but their leadership skills as well through cooperative learning in a supportive environment.
