What:
Summer Enrichment Camp (SEC) is an academic summer program with classes designed to both introduce the novice and challenge the advanced learner. The classes are small, and our innovative teachers create an environment in which learning is fun and curiosity is rewarded. We offer a wide variety of courses, hoping to encourage our campers to choose subjects that may be outside of their comfort zone. Campers have the opportunity to engage in outdoor activities in the afternoon, then after dinner go to clubs. Some popular clubs in the past have been reading, board games, juggling, and drawing. The evening activity is different every night throughout the week, from campus-wide hunts for aliens or zombies, to the much anticipated dance (lovingly referred to as the "disco" because it's been a tradition for a long time).
Schedule:
