Offered to ALL students entering 4th-8th grade
Cougar Strong is a program geared towards our older students (ages 9-14) and designed to challenge and stimulate young minds. We strive to create an experience that is as immersive and enriching as it is fun. We are dedicated to creating authentic and meaningful experiences for our campers. Our summer counselors and lead teachers are a unique mix of alumni and CEA faculty. Cougar Strong campers will be exposed to a well-rounded mix of technology, athletics, reading, math, cooking, and hands-on experiences through the maker’s movement. In technology, students code, learn the basics of game design, complete a digital citizenship course, create an iMovie, and, ultimately, design their own game online to share with an international community. In athletics, campers will go through strength and resistance training, speed training, and will complete an obstacle course at the end of the six weeks. Hands-on experiences will allow students to create solutions to everyday issues, works of art, and useful inventions. The Maker Movement is a unique combination of artistry, circuitry, and old-fashioned craftsmanship. Come join the Cougar Strong movement!
