The Robinson Center’s Summer Program provides an intensive, inspirational, and in-depth learning experience for students who are prepared to take on the challenge.

We offer a rich variety of math, science, literature, philosophy, and writing classes. Classes are small in size and taught by faculty members who are experienced teachers and specialists in their fields.

Summer Challenge, for current 5th-6th graders, emphasizes hands-on learning, field trips, and activities; Summer Stretch, for current 7th-10th graders, is more academic in nature, providing an accelerated, rigorous learning experience. Both programs are characterized by high-level thinking, intellectual adventure, and pursuit of understanding.

Registration for Summer Challenge 2024 begins February 4th at 4:00 PM. Registration for Summer Stretch 2024 begins February 11th at 4:00 PM. Registration for both programs will close at 5:00 PM on June 7th.
