SPONSORED POST: The wait is over. New York’s top-rated summer technology program, SummerTech, finally comes to the Wellesley area this summer for three amazing weeks in late July and early August. SummerTech is the only summer STEM program that teaches to the individual. Our 3:1 student-to-teacher ratio enables kids to move at their own pace through college-level coding classes, animation, web development, 3D modeling courses, gaming events, and more.
SummerTech Open House, Sunday, March 17
Stop by Summer Tech’s Open House event on Sunday, March 17, 10am – 4pm, at Regis College. Meet our founder and directors as we present to you a new kind of STEM program that grows with children and offers them community, social activities, and leadership opportunities like none other.
SummerTech features a living, evolving curriculum that features the foundations and building blocks to becoming a developer. Our ability to teach at all levels means your child will never outgrow us or repeat curriculum. The academic experience is based on the individual. Kids always progress at their own pace!
The daily routine is anything but routine
SummerTech’s typical day features classes in your child’s main focus of study, an elective, sports and recreation, gaming, social activities as well as lunch and dinner. Students can stay as late as 9pm or even stay overnight in the dorms.
We look forward to seeing you on Summer Tech’s Open House on Sunday, March 17, 10am – 4pm at Regis College. Tell your friends!
