Camp Overview:
The basis of the camp is to reinforce basic skills in the areas of reading, writing, math and technology as well as critical and creative thinking skills so that students continue to develop the academic competencies required for successful application to college.

There will be a variety of cooperative and leadership opportunities for students to recognize their potential as leaders and Mount Mary College will provide information regarding college and career academic expectations and the relationship between high school achievement and these expectations.

Participants will attend classes in the morning and enjoy field trips, sports, computer projects and leadership and team building activities in the afternoon.

The end project will be building a web page/profile that represents how the student pictures themselves as a college student.

Registration Information: Only 30 spots available which will be filled through an application process.
