HistoryAt CAML Academy, we believe that the STEM subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math open more doors to student success than any other educational pursuit. Consistent exposure to digital tools and languages is inevitable in our modern world. Embracing digital technology helps create powerful foundations for learning, propelling students to new heights regardless of whether they want to pursue careers in computers or they want to be well-rounded citizen in the 21st century. At CAML, we design our programs to be fun, playful, and project-driven to address children's natural curiosity. We believe children learn best when they are actively working on meaningful projects, generating new ideas, designing prototypes and constantly refining through an iterative process. Research shows that project-based learning helps students perform well on school tests, improves problem-solving and collaboration skills, and improves attitudes towards learning.SpecialtiesWhat Do We Teach? Our Computer Science and coding camps are educational, engaging and entertaining, teaching fundamental Computer Science principles, programming skills, robotics, game & app design, and more! Through participation in camp, students will have the opportunity to create impressive projects to share with their friends and family at the end of the week. How Do We Teach? Our coding camps are led by knowledgeable and experienced coding instructors that lead our after-school clubs and enrichment programs during the school year, with the help of additional computer science experts to ensure all children get the assistance and attention they need everyday. We know that summer camp is a time for fun- so we've carefully designed a daily schedule that will keep kids active and learning all day! Our schedule features shorter blocks of content coaching, to keep engagement high, and a morning recharge with outdoor gross motor time. Open exploration in our flex space gives children the opportunity to interact with their peers off-screen, get their creative juices flowing through enrichment, and participate in spirit events that embody what CAML is all about!
