“Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility – these three forces are the very nerve of education.”

It’s a beautiful 4th here in SoCal! ...

Week 1 of the Wildcat Grades Summer Camp was a blast!!!

This week the campers in Grades 1 through 4 explored the fundamentals of robotics with @rollingrobots while campers in Grades 5 through 8 developed their wet felting skills.

In addition to working with Rolling Robots, the Wildcat Summer Camp Teachers curated an array of scientific experiments! The lower grade campers built spaghetti marshmallow structures and conducted an “eggscellent” engineering experiment that involved Mr. Jay scaling the Aftercare Building and tossing eggs nestled in vessels designed to prevent the egg shells from cracking. The week culminated with a puppet show produced by the upper grade campers themselves (oh and don’t forget the slip and slide and ice cream cones!).

All of our students from Grades 4 through 8 practice an instrument for the orchestra or the band. They learn to site read and play in an ensemble. Months of study, effort and energy result in the annual Spring Concert. Grades 4-8 student musicians delighted their audience with heartfelt performances of pieces by Beethoven, Wolfhart, Dvorak, J. Williams & Handel (to name a few).
What a wonderful evening!
