What students had to say about last year’s camp:

“It was a great camp. I learned a lot. I will use what I learned this year to rock it next year. Thank you!”

Vincent C., innovator behind a new way to bridge the digital divide

“It was very fun and engaging. It let me connect with other homeschool students and see how others think so differently. The diverse group helped me improve my thinking and also gave me ideas I had never thought of. The content was great and presented in a way that was fun and easy to understand. It gave me opportunities that I would have never had access to otherwise.”

Karma B., future founder of a life skills edtech venture

“So thankful for this opportunity to grow and learn alongside my peers and from such great mentors.”

Elijah P., future sustainable food truck owner
