Full Day vs. Half Day Camps

Full Day "STEAM" Camps

Our Full Day STEAM Camps are commonly referred to as our “best of” camps because they include a little bit of just about everything Full STEAM Ahead has to offer. As a result, each STEAM Camp has a unique theme and unique activities so that nothing is ever repeated (we’ve got over 700 unique STEAM lesson plans!!). Activities during ALL Full Day STEAM Camps include:

3D Modeling & 3D Printing
Music
Coding
Robotics
Minecraft
Art
Outdoor explorations
Engineering challenges
Science
…and more!

No experience is necessary! Our students come from a broad range of backgrounds, experiences, skill sets, and passions, and we design all of our activities with this in mind. Because of this, our lessons are all highly scalable an appropriate for all ages in attendance. To accomplish this, we plan our lessons with a low entry point for even the youngest and least experienced students. However, each lesson is similarly designed with a very high ceiling (or virtually no ceiling in most cases) so that students will never “max out” their skills or knowledge, as often happens in traditional education settings.

Half Day "Specialty" Camps

Our half day camps specialize in 1 particular topic or skill set and take a deep dive into that topic. These camps are designed for students really looking to work toward expertise or mastery in a specific domain.

Full STEAM Ahead Specialty Summer Camps are the perfect way to keep your child growing all summer long. First, our STEM Summer Camps and Arts Summer Camps allow children to dig deep into topics that they love in a way that helps them grow intellectually and socially. Additionally, Our campers make new friends with common goals. Finally, they spend their summer using problem solving skills and creativity. All specialty camps include access to our Maker Traits, STEAM Cents, Challenge Badges, and ample learning opportunities across the STEAM spectrum.

Yes, camp tuition fees can be refunded in most circumstances. To protect ourselves from last minute cancellations, there are a few exceptions.

Cancellations with 14+ days notice prior to camp start date are eligible for a full refund*

Cancellations 7-14 days notice prior to camp start date are eligible for a 50% refund*

We are unable to provide refunds for camps cancelled fewer than 7 days prior to the camp start date*

All refunds carry a $25 cancellation fee. If you choose a transfer or credit towards future classes or camps, this fee $25 is waived.

Do I need to pack a lunch for my child?

Students that are staying for Full Day S.T.E.A.M. Camp(s) or 2 Half Day Specialty camps need to be provided with a packed lunch with a cold pack (if needed). Depending on location, there may be third party lunch options available for purchase.

Students staying for Half-Day Specialty camps do not need lunch, but are welcome to pack a snack or a lunch to eat with their friends before or after their camp.

Snacks are available for students to purchase with their STEAM Cents during our morning and afternoon snack break, or parents are welcome to send snacks with their children.

Will my child be outside at all during the day?

Depending on the location and the camp, yes. Based on available outdoor space, students will spend short amounts of time during the day (weather pending). During the summer, we limit outside time due to the heat and humidity. However, we believe exercise and play are a critical part of a child’s day! If you are at a location with outdoor play space, we recommend sending sunscreen or applying sunscreen before your camp starts just in case!

Are discounts available?

Yes! Discounts include:

– Half & Full Summer

STEAM Masterminds – 15% off 4+ full weeks of camp

STEAM Legends – 20% off Full Summer Tuition

– Need-based tuition assistance

– Sibling Discounts

– Early Bird discounts start Feb 1. These dates will be posted when camps are open for enrollment

How and when are my discounts applied?

Summer camp discounts are not automatically generated by our system at registration. If your account shows the full amount after registration, don’t worry! We manually review every account before processing any payments to make sure that you receive the correct discounts. If you have any questions or concerns about the charges on your account, feel free to email [email protected] or call us at (239) 689-3602.

My child has already attended a camp. Can they do it again?

Absolutely! We pride ourselves on consistently creative and unique lesson plans, and we almost never repeat the same exact camp twice. We have almost 700 unique lesson plans to choose from across myriad STEAM topics. Even if we did, our projects are typically so open ended that children could complete the same project 10 times and end up with 10 different results, and would increase in confidence and ability each time. Futher, children tend to love the familiarity of having done a camp or lesson before, knowing that they have some special knowledge about the topic that they may be able to share. Children will always grow and learn as a part of a Full STEAM Ahead camp, even if they’re doing it for the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th time.

Are Payment Plans available?

Yes, if you are signing up for multiple camps. We are able to break up the cost of the camps into bi-weekly or monthly payments, so long as the full amounts are paid at least 14 days prior to the start of your first camp. To set up a payment plan, please call us at (239) 689-3602 or email [email protected]
