Summer Enrichment Program 2026
We’re excited to invite your child to join the LLYC Summer Enrichment Program, a hands-on summer program where students explore STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) while learning about careers, financial decision-making, and real-world problem solving.
Program Details

Time: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (Morning Session); 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM (Afternoon Session)

What Makes This Camp Special
The Summer Enrichment Program blends daily hands-on learning with a unique Career & Life Simulation Game where students choose a career path (such as software engineer, pilot, environmental scientist, entrepreneur, etc.) and make real-life decisions about housing, transportation, savings, and responding to unexpected events. This combination helps students understand how the world works, how careers connect to education and income, and how personal decisions affect long-term outcomes.
Each child will build a personal research binder containing notes, experiments, and career exploration activities to take home at the end of camp as a keepsake of their summer learning.
