With spring break behind us, summer can't be far off. Time to shore up your child's USN Summer Camp plans with these great offerings and more:
Week of 6/6 - 6/10: "Design, Fly, Destroy." If you have a budding engineer at your house, then this is the camp for you. Each day will focus on one topic (buildings, water, flight, etc) with a mix of exploration, crafts, and hands-on projects. Campers will create designs to bring home every day including hovercrafts, catapults, and mini roller coasters. (Rising 3rd-5th graders)
Week of 6/6 - 6/10: "Ultimate Frisbee." Have you heard about the fastest growing youth sport in America? Ultimate frisbee leagues are popping up everywhere, and the youth scene is growing at an exponential rate. Ultimate is a great sport for all fitness levels and team sport experience. This one-week camp will focus on skills, rules of the game and fun drills to help learn how the game works. NO experience is needed. (Rising 6th-8th graders)
We have also just added a new writing workshop for rising 3rd to 6th graders called "Young Authors Mini-Camp." It is being offered as an afternoon session the week of 6/20 and also the week of 6/27.
For the third time, the junior has earned recognition for her C-SPAN StudentCam documentary. Elected officials and a representative from the network honored her during High School Assembly on Friday, May 2.
Congratulations to Max Parker ’29, Anisha Nachnani ’32, Indy O’Hare ’32, and Lucas Lupu ’31, who took home the top prize at the USN Quiz Bowl Championship.
