STEAM Summer Camp 2019
The Teen STEAM Summer Camp is a six-week program for teens ages 13-18 designed to explore topics in science, technology, engineering, art and math. Campers gain in-depth, hands-on experience in STEM fields, art and design, public speaking, research, along with various other professional and personal skills.
Each week, campers engage with a different topic with fun and hands-on workshops led by professional presenters. The camp is a great way to build experience for your college resume, earn community service requirements, discover new interests, make long-lasting friendships, and have fun.
Francis Sanchez has created an awesome webpage to showcase his experience during the 2019 Camp session. Be sure to check it out!
And take a look at the 2018 site made by Jarlene Rodriguez.
