SuperCamp, a summer enrichment program that teaches life, leadership, and 21st-century skills to kids and teens worldwide is pleased to offer two regional program locations in the beautiful state of California.
One of SuperCamp’s three California summer camps is situated on the prestigious Stanford University campus, a university that is synonymous with academic excellence. Located halfway between San Francisco and San Jose in Palo Alto, the university’s red tile roofs and Spanish arches give this school a distinct California flavor. SuperCamp students live in historic Toyon Hall and experience what it’s like to study on campus at one of America’s best-known universities. Stanford, which is home to numerous summer camp programs, is one of the most popular locations for SuperCamp participants.
While attending SuperCamp at Stanford, students will be fully immersed in the college lifestyle. Aside from living on campus in Toyon Hall, campers will also eat three full meals a day in one of the school’s cafeterias and attend academic sessions in a few of Stanford’s classrooms.
Stanford plays host to five SuperCamp sessions and two different programs between late June and the end of August. The first program, Junior Forum, is designed to teach students entering grades 6 through 8 academic and personal enrichment skills to help them be more successful inside and outside the classroom. They discover their individual learning styles and develop skills for dealing with a heavier academic and social schedule. They also learn how to participate in “real-life” activities that enable them to make responsible choices and win the support, understanding, and guidance of their teachers, parents, and peers.
Junior Forum’s program is a great segue into the second program Stanford offers, which is SuperCamp’s Senior Forum teen summer camp, where students learn to make the most of every moment, uncover their unique abilities, and develop greater confidence while mastering strategies for academic, and personal success. The skills that campers learn through the Senior Forum program help to ease school stress, build study skills, improve grades, and increase test scores, including the SAT and ACT. Students also learn life skills that encourage them to discover their strengths, pursue goals, make big decisions, solve problems, and resolve conflicts. This program is designed for students entering grades 9 through 12 in the fall and offers lessons in leadership-building as well.
