STUDENTS
We accept students from the ages of 6 to 18, just like a combined elementary and high school.
DURATION
All of our classes are for a duration of three weeks (Jul 20th-Aug 7th): long enough to learn, but not so long as to eat up vacation time.
PLANNING
We provide detailed syllabuses complete with a list of supplies needed for all non-lecture classes that are linked on the registration form.
TEACHERS
Other than our administrative email, there is also contact information for all of our teachers listed on the staff page. They're always happy to help.
