Students work together in small "tribes" to solve each week's challenges, giving them an opportunity to grow their teamwork and social skills as well. We look forward to seeing you on Challenge Island!
Amusement Park Island: Buckle your seatbelts for this fun, hands-on Challenge Island program, where we’ll be experimenting with STEAM principles and working as teams to create thrill rides galore!
