PJA has developed a wonderful summer program to give kids a taste of PJA fun in the summertime.  This program, led by some of our talented teachers, is designed to be as fun and enriching as a summer should be.

 

The program is not only open to PJA students but to any child with an interest in having some great summer fun! 

 

Leapfrog
(4+5 yrs. old by June 1)
Leapfrog engages young learners in an exploration of math, science, and literacy activities that are hands-on and inquiry-based. These classes will nurture your child’s curiosity, allow their imaginations to flourish, and foster a love for learning.

Stepping Stone
(entering grades 1-3)
Stepping Stone inspires kids to explore new and exciting topics that incorporate inquiry-based activities, global themes, and project-based work. Students will become inspired while forming friendships with other learners that share their passion for the same topic.

Soaring
(entering grades 4+5)
Soaring challenges learners to broaden their thinking through in-depth study of exciting topics offered by our talented instructors.
The enrichment classes will be taught with inquiry in mind, allowing students to explore other cultures, and express themselves creatively.

 

General Information
• All students must be the designated age for the course by June 1, 2010.
