Academic summer camps are a good investment. That’s the conclusion of many parents who are becoming aware of the fleeting value of traditional summer camps. Instead, they see academic summer camps as an investment that pays lasting dividends.
“SuperCamp was probably the single best investment we made in our daughter’s future,” stated Alice Keppler, who sent her daughter to SuperCamp’s 10-day learning and life skills summer camp. “She feels so good about herself. Every time she remarks how her grades have improved, we remind her that this is a gift she gave to herself.”
The added bonus to attending SuperCamp is that the kids love it – they have a great time, make new friends, and leave at the end of 10 days wanting to come back again next year. So, while some parents hesitate sending their kids to an academic camp in the summer, preferring to give them a break from academics, other parents realize that by picking the right camp, they can give their kids a fun time and there will be long-term value as well.
As another parent of a SuperCamp graduate says, "This is an investment in your child's future. You will ask yourself, 'Why didn't I do this sooner?'." And the kids agree. Says one recent graduate, "I just wanted to let you know how big of an impact SuperCamp has had on me. I am getting A's and B's in all of my classes. I am really enjoying school. I hope that I get a chance to come back next year."
It’s no wonder that the camp had a waiting list of over 200 kids when the summer started last year. Information on 2008 programs is available at http://www.supercamp.com/ and by calling 800-285-3276.
