Sparking imaginative learning through STREAM opportunities
A Summer of STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, & Mathematics) was launched in 2022 to assist in alleviating the summer learning loss among middle school students in Southeastern Indiana. As a way to help students increase academic achievement and apply curious minds and critical-thinking skills to real-world opportunities, Genesis: Pathways to Success developed A Summer of STREAM to encapsulate and spark imaginative learning through STREAM-focused summer camps and activities.
A Summer of STREAM camps and activities are made available to ALL middle school (5th - 8th grade) students in Southeastern Indiana. Our STREAM-focused hands-on learning opportunities are designed to lay the foundation for a successful career pathway by giving students the opportunity to further develop the soft skills sought by employers. Soft skills, such as communication, collaboration, problem-solving, adaptability, and leadership, are incorporated into A Summer of STREAM camp exercises to build potential in our future workforce.
Through initiatives like A Summer of STREAM, Genesis has created a STREAM Ecosystem that is innovative, challenging, and fun for students!
Check back next spring for 2025 camp details.
A Summer of STREAM camp offerings will be released in the spring of 2025.
