Super Bowl or SuperCamp: What's More Super to Parents?

While the Super Bowl captures everyone's attention this week, there's another Super event that makes a far greater impression on parents looking for academic help for their middle school and high school students.

SuperCamp is a
summer enrichment program that helps students raise grades, confidence and teen motivation through the acquisition of powerful learning and life skills that sharpen study, test taking, reading, creative writing, problem solving, critical thinking and memory skills.

SuperCamp has been around almost as long as the Super Bowl. Now in its twenty-ninth year, SuperCamp has graduated over 53,000 students. And its supporters are as fanatical as the most ardent Colts and Saints fans. Jeff Schweppe, who has had a son and daughter attend SuperCamp multiple times calls SuperCamp, "Unbelievable!"

The passion runs deep among SuperCamp's highly skilled staff, as well. Weston Kieschnick, a six-time facilitator at SuperCamp says, "What a unique opportunity it is to have such a huge impact on these kids. It's the intrinsic value I get from working at SuperCamp that's worth more than any money I could make."

The
summer educational camp has room for about 2,500 students each summer across its nine U.S. locations. Each session holds 80 to 100 students. The training is broken into seven-day middle school programs and 10-day camps for high school students.

In 2010, SuperCamp will be held at Brown University, UCLA, Stanford, Wake Forest, and five other outstanding campuses. More information is available at www.SuperCamp.com and by calling 800-285-3276.
