Turning Point will once again be collaborating with the highly-regarded Galileo: Innovation Camps for Kids.
Galileo’s mission is to develop innovators who envision and create a better world – a natural complement to Turning Point’s mission, philosophy, and core values. Inspired by the Stanford School of Design, their award-winning curriculum is designed to encourage children to be bolder, more creative, less discouraged by failure, and hungrier for challenges.
Two innovative programs for students entering Grades K-8 will be offered at Turning Point this summer. These programs will be open to both Turning Point students and students from other schools.
