It’s summer camp registration season for parents all across the U.S. as they look for the best summer enrichment and fun opportunities for their kids. While the snow still is falling in some parts of the country, parents are researching summer camp options, so their kids don’t get left out in the cold when the camps fill up.
SuperCamp, a leading academic summer camp, had a waiting list of over 200 kids when the camp season began last summer. “We encourage parents to sign up early so they can get their first choice of camp location and session,” said Bobbi DePorter, president of SuperCamp.
SuperCamp has eight locations in the U.S. at colleges ranging from Cornell in the east to Stanford in the west. A total of 35 individual camp sessions are offered in age-specific levels for students from fourth grade to incoming college freshmen. Over 3,000 students are expected to be enrolled in SuperCamp by the end of June.
In California alone, SuperCamp offers parents three locations to send their kids, including a Northern California summer camp at Stanford and two Southern California camps at the Claremont Colleges and Cal State San Marcos.
SuperCamp has added a midwest summer camp in Des Moines, Iowa this year at Drake University. This camp is within easy driving distance for families from Chicago, the Twin Cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City and Omaha.
Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina is a popular summer camp location for families throughout the southeast. In the Rocky Mountain states, students have a camp nearby at Colorado College in Colorado Springs.
At SuperCamp, kids learn how to learn. They are given the tools to read and write better, study more effectively, and problem solve. Also, the SuperCamp instructors create a series of mini-success moments for each camper, so they leave SuperCamp feeling more comfortable with who they are and more confident in their ability to succeed at anything they put their minds to.
Based on accelerated learning methods that Ms. DePorter first applied with entrepreneurs almost 30 years ago, SuperCamp is an intensive residential summer program that has graduated over 48,000 students worldwide in its 26 years. In addition, DePorter’s company, Quantum Learning Network, trains teachers in these same learning techniques in schools throughout the United States.
SuperCamp’s popularity is not limited to the U.S. Currently there are SuperCamp programs running in several countries in Asia, Europe and Latin America. Additionally, SuperCamp’s Quantum Learning teaching methods are being used by teachers in at least 30 states nationwide. In fact, over two million students have been reached by Quantum Learning teachers.
