Morning Program:

STEAM, Skill Building & Project-Based Learning

9:00 am -1:00 pm

Learn new academic, social, executive function and neurophysio skills in our morning session: a condensed version of Cajal Academy’s year round, neuroscience-based approach to learning and social-emotional development!

Spend your July with Cajal’s unique community, and experience a whole new way to learn! Our summer cohort will work together as a team to collaboratively solve a real world problem—one that requires them to integrate across math, science, social studies, language arts and visual arts curricula to develop the analysis, synthesis and creative thinking skills that are essential to 21st century success. All of this is supported through our exclusive Body-Informed Learning, which gets kids up and moving to accelerate their learning, instead of pressuring them to sit still and listen.

Our morning session is taught by Cajal Academy’s expert, year round team of educators and licensed OT, PT, SLP and psychology clinicians. Curriculum and supports to build executive function, social-emotional, self-regulation and physio skills are integrated into the project curriculum itself. Meanwhile, all our students receive instruction in the neuroscience behind learning and social development, fostering an authentic growth mindset, and coaching in how to self-monitor, self-manage and self-advocate for their needs. High school students will take this one step further through leadership training and mentoring opportunities.

All students interested in joining our summer program must complete our regular admissions application; students who are enrolled in our current or upcoming school year are not required to submit an additional application.
