We are excited to share that Buffalo STEAM Camp is back after a two‑year hiatus! The enthusiasm has been incredible—our first session filled immediately and even exceeded capacity with Buffalo students as soon as registration opened so I wasn't able to offer to any students outside of Buffalo.
Because of the overwhelming interest, we are happy to announce that we are opening a second round of STEAM Camp this summer.
Second Session Details:
Who: Students entering 3rd–5th grade in August 2026
Cost: $75 per student
Availability: 30 open spots
Eligibility: Open to students from any district or school
(We would love to welcome students outside the district, private or charter as well-especially if they are considering enrolling!)
Details: All camp information is included on the attached registration link
If you are willing to share this opportunity with families, we truly appreciate it—no pressure at all. Please note that if we do not receive enough registrations to cover expenses, the second session would need to be canceled.
Thank you for your continued support of STEAM opportunities for students in the DCSD. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
