summer camp is ideal for beginners, experts, or past students who want to experiment and get creative!
~ Using STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) to create and learn, students will explore and experiment using the design process through planning, testing, and doing. They will use LEGO® Mindstorm™ kits to combine robotics, art, and our local environment to create their own designs.
