High School Academic Camps Provide College Inspiration

SuperCamp academic summer camps are a popular choice among parents whose children are aspiring to attend a top college. SuperCamp holds teen summer camps for high school students at some of the most prestigious universities in the country, including Cornell, Stanford, and Wake Forest.

These residential summer camps give students an opportunity to live on campus for ten days and soak in the atmosphere of a beautiful college setting.

"Sleeping in the dorms, eating in the cafeterias, and walking the grounds is an amazing experience for any high school student," said Bobbi DePorter, president of SuperCamp. "Just think how inspirational it can be for them to stay at a Stanford or a Cornell for ten days."

Students attending SuperCamp also find inspiration in the camp's staff who are trained to create multiple mini-success moments for each camper throughout the ten day experience. These series of mini-successes contribute to the increase in confidence, self-esteem and motivation the great majority of graduates report.

The learning skills the campers acquire also help to boost their confidence as their motivation to succeed in high school, so they can advance to a great college. Students find that studying, reading, problem solving, test taking, memorization, creative writing and other skills all become easier with the strategies and techniques they acquire in their 10 days at SuperCamp's academic camps.
