The whole campus is like a university. You have to be way more responsible. It was an experience that teaches you to be much more responsible and aware of your surroundings.
The best part is not only do you get to learn knowledge wise but also get to learn about being mature and independent. And the food here is super duper good!
I will never forget the friends I made. The House Parents are all very nice. The food was healthy and delicious. Thank you for the awesome summer camp!
I made friends that I will never forget. I noticed a great improvement in my social skills, and I loved sharing moments with students and staff.
It was an incredible experience.
