Here’s what’s planned for SUMMER 2025!
REGISTRATION IS OPEN!!
We are offering weekly registration to our Summer program for attendees aged 8 and up. Each week our attendees learn and explore special topics of interest. We support our attendees through the presumption of competence and maintain a 3-1 ratio of attendees to staff. We ask that any differently-speaking attendee have access to and experience with communication strategies.
Attendees may register for any number of weeks.
Cost is $395 per week, per Attendee, and includes tickets/fees for field trips. Our schedule is Monday through Thursday, 9:30am-2pm.
Each Thursday we take our attendees on a field trip to further support what we addressed each week. Our hope is to offer them a safe and fun opportunity to explore our community with their peers! For field trips, we maintain a 2-1 ratio of attendees to staff for safety.
Check out our schedule and registration information below and hope to see you there!
Space is limited to 6 attendees per week.
