Career Camps for Kids

Future Ready Career Camps for Grades 4 to 9

Our 4th annual Summer Camp runs the week of June 1, 2026 and is the perfect chance for students in grades 4 through 9 to dive into exciting career fields and explore their passions.

From flying drones to solving medical mysteries, running a mock trial to creating digital masterpieces, there’s something for everyone in our 10+ unique sessions! Whether you're a future tech wizard, chef, artist, or entrepreneur, this camp is designed to spark your imagination and open the door to endless possibilities.

What's New for 2026!

Based on feedback from campers and their families, we made some exciting updates to improve the camp experience.

Camp Sessions by Grade Level 
This age-based schedule allows instructors to tailor activities, expectations, and projects specifically to each group.
🕘 Morning Camps: Open to students in grades 4–6
🕐 Afternoon Camps: Open to students in grades 7–9
These changes allow instructors to tailor activities by age, go deeper into each career field, and keep campers fully engaged.

Same Camp Names. Deeper Learning.
Each career camp will be offered both in the morning and afternoon and will keep the same camp name across grade levels. However, the content and depth of work will be different in each session. Younger campers will focus on exploration and foundational skills, while older campers will take on more advanced projects and challenges within the same career area.

Focused Camp Time
To keep our schedule running smoothly and minimize wait times at drop-off and pick-up, before- and after-care will not be available in 2026, and lunch will not be provided. This allows us to spend more time learning, creating, and exploring—without interruptions.

Best Chef Duo! 🧑‍🍳

"My son had a wonderful experience learning how to cook and bake through the Sizzle and Stir Camp. He is now motivated and excited to cook at home for himself and his family and will continue to strengthen these wonderful life skills he learned throughout camp. It was the perfect week of fun and learning alongside peers his age and talented, caring teachers, chefs, and staff. Definitely a meaningful experience he will never forget!"
