Fourth Annual STEM Camp

We are pleased to inform you about the fourth annual summer STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Camp offered in Rugby! This year’s theme is “A Dino-Mite STEM Camp!” The STEM Camp is open to students enrolling in 3rd – 5th grades for the 2018 – 2019 school year at Rugby Public School. The camp will run Monday, July 30th – Friday, August 3rd from 8 AM to noon each day at the Rugby High School in the commons area, which is located by the front entry of the building. Enrollment will begin in April 2018. Stop by either the Ely Elementary office or the Rugby High School office to pick up a registration form. Enrollment is $40 per student and checks should be made to Rugby Public School. Payment needs to be submitted with a completed application. Space is limited to 35 students, so don’t delay in filling out and returning your applications!

Students will be grouped together and will work together with peers and high school student helpers to complete investigations pertaining to dinosaurs and prehistoric Earth. Students should arrive promptly so they can have optimal educational opportunities. Students will be served a small snack mid-morning. Below you will find the schedule of events. We hope your students will be a part of this exciting summer program! Parent volunteers are welcome to join us. Please contact Ms. Goddard for more information on volunteering.
