Summer Academy 2022 was a success!
Students had a variety of opportunities this summer. Through our six-week program, students took time to explore different career interests, be part of a radio show, take Mandarin Chinese classes, and make new friends. In addition to this, we finished our summer program with a great college trip to Utah.
