Price per class is $125.00, two classes $250.00, and three $375.00. Registering for classes on this website is for the week and will not allow enrollment for a specific class. This is due to the website's design that is for an on-site camp; however, we have made adjustments to accommodate a virtual summer camp. The summer camp coordinator will contact each family to see which class they enrolled their child. This information will be given to the instructors and they will contact the students giving them Zoom log in and password information. If you have any questions, please contact Ephraim Padilla, the summer camp coordinator at [email protected].

Dress Code: For skills training, students should wear shoes and clothing appropriate for the safe and comfortable performance of athletic activities.: 11:00 am-12:00 pm.
CSI Digital Forensics Escape Room-In this totally digital escape room activity, students solve a forensic mystery using science and critical thinking. In the activities, students analyze 4 different pieces of evidence (fingerprints, shoe prints, unknown powder, and pen samples) and keep track of evidence and suspects. They use their power of observations to “crack the case” and prove their innocence by figuring out who really committed the crime. Course Materials - Students must have access to a working computer that can access ZOOM and other apps. 10:00-11:00 am.
Introduction to Spanish-Introduction to Spanish will provide the student with a general introduction to the Spanish language: sound system, pronunciation, functional vocabulary related to everyday life, cultural information, and basic grammatical structures. Emphasis will be on the acquisition of four skills: listening, speaking, reading, and limited writing. There are two main objectives of the course. Foremost is to give the students the ability to carry on a simple conversation. The second is to provide the students with instruction that teaches a basic understanding of Spanish culture, vocabulary, and grammatical concepts. Course Materials - Students must have access to a working computer that can access ZOOM and other apps. Students will also need paper and a pencil.: 1:00-2:00 pm.
Fitness-working on cardiovascular and muscular endurance. We will be using bodyweight.: 4:00-5:00 pm.
Baking Science-Baking is a science. Mostly, baking is physics and chemistry, both of which you will explore during this course. Almost all baking recipes call for flour, eggs, fat, sugar, and a leavening agent (baking soda or powder), and follow a standard sequence of steps. What's a leavening agent? Why do I need this? This course will teach you how to interpret terminology, read and follow recipes, understand the “why” behind the steps, and how to follow instructions precisely to get consistent results. That’s what science is about, accuracy in its methods and results that can be reproduced consistently. Course Materials - Students must have access to a working computer that can access ZOOM and baking ingredients (as noted below). Materials include, but are not limited to: Two bags of All-purpose flour; Box of Rice Cereal; Box of Yellow Cake Mix; Carton of Eggs; Bag of Granulated Sugar; Bag of Confectioners Sugar; Two Boxes of Stick Butter (Unsalted); Vanilla Flavoring; One Bottle of Light Corn Syrup; Cornstarch; Vegetable Oil; Milk; Baking Powder.: 9:00-10:00 am and 1:00-2:00 pm (select one session either in the am or pm).
Magic of Presentation-What do you get when you combine performing magic, stage presence, and public speaking skills? You get a polished, confident performer/presenter. These are valuable skill sets that are not only fun to learn - but incredibly fun to perform anywhere. Student presentations will be posted on YOUtube for students to share with family and friends. Course Materials - Students must have access to a working computer that can access ZOOM and or Flip Grid.: (2 sessions) 9:00-10:00 am and 1:00-2:00 pm.
