Summer Camps

Sign up now!

​Registration closes on June 30, 2020.
We're currently taking sign ups for the 2020 summer camps. Remember that these camps are free for participants; however, an electronic device with stable internet connection is needed for participation. We understand that this technology requirement may be a burden for some families, so feel free to email us at stemthinkinc@gmail.com, and we will try to help in any way we can.
Camp Sign Ups

Please fill out this form to register for the 2020 STEMThink virtual summer camps. Be sure to fill out the form in its entirety. Older elementary school aged girls (4th-5th grade) are also encouraged to apply. Preference is given to girls, but exceptions may be made in some cases for boys interested in participating.

What We'll Teach

The STEMThink Summer Camps will focus on teaching participants app and website development from scratch, as well as integrating STEMThink's mental health curriculum within daily lessons (participants will learn what mental health is, why it's important, what mental disabilities are, and how to maintain good mental health). At the end of the program, participants will develop an app or webpage that advocates for an issue in their community, connecting tech with activism. We'll also be inviting three guest speakers from a diverse range of tech companies to each session to talk about balancing mental health and their career.

​July 13-17, 2020
