Full-Day Program

Transformation & Community through Self-Discovery & Real World Learning

9:00 am -2:30 pm

Come explore who you want to be, and develop the skills to grow towards it, in Cajal Academy’s summer Transformations program for bright, gifted and twice exceptional kids.

Kids who have innovative and unique ways of seeing the world need a unique set of skills to realize those visions, and to avoid becoming overwhelmed or isolated along the way. Helping kids gain the self-understandings and skills they need to do that is at the core of Cajal Academy’s mission throughout the academic year, and we are opening this up to the community through our Full Day Summer Program.

Our Full Day students get all the benefits and activities as the Morning and Afternoon programs, including project-based learning sessions and afternoon arts, fitness and recreational activities, and have the opportunity to work with our expert licensed therapists and our Growth Mindset and Agency coach to help them better understand their unique strengths and weaknesses, and how these profiles influence their learning and social-emotional experiences. Skill building is infused throughout the day to help them learn social skills they can use to foster truly inclusive neuro-diverse communities; sensory strategies they can use to optimize the brain for learning; and a design thinking/engineering process they can use to break down and manifest visions from a new novel to launching a new product.
