Hun Summer Adventures
June 28 - Aug. 6
Ages: 9-13
Cost: $275 per weekly class; Multi-week discounts
Imagine using physics principles to design your own superhero, learning how to invest and run a real business, jumping into a new historical time machine each week, exploring new ways to express yourself, or discovering how your mind thinks through puzzles. Part summer camp, part academic class, Hun Adventures are project-based learning experiences that are designed to stimulate the imagination and tickle the funny bone.
Choose anywhere from one to all six, one-week sessions in three distinct subjects: Business, STEAM, Humanities, Storytelling or The Brain. All classes study primary sources, as well as learn research, design thinking, collaboration, analytical writing, and problem-solving - all of which are skills essential for success in high school and college. Students will participate in local field trips as well as connecting with experts in their discipline. Each session draws on multiple disciplines, requires collaboration, involves Shark-Tank-style pitches, and leads to a culminating project that parents and kids will be proud of.
