Camp Invention® is coming to Garrett Elementary School!

In partnership with the National Inventors Hall of Fame® (NIHF), Garrett Elementary School is pleased to offer the nationally acclaimed Camp Invention® program to children entering kindergarten through sixth grade. It’s an exciting, weeklong summer adventure with lessons that explore connections between science, technology, engineering and innovation. Children work together to create solutions to real-world problems and build critical 21st-century skills while rotating through several high-energy, hands-on modules. The week begins on June 24 with Christina Hughes serving as Director of the Launch program!

During this program, young innovators will spend their time:

• Inventing their own duct tape creations and pitching them to mock investors
• Exploring a distant new exoplanet and designing inventions to create the next Earth
• Launching water rockets, building Bubble Blasters and engineering giant castles
• Creating their own personal, ultimate Spy Gadget Alarm Boxes by taking apart and upcycling everyday machines

Activities give participants the opportunity to explore, discover and achieve while having fun!

Local educators facilitate program modules and enthusiastic high school students serve as Leadership Interns, ensuring that one staff member is in place for every eight children.
