College For Kids (CFK) Spring Break Camp
For over 20 years, Santa Fe's Community Education program has brought College for Kids programs to our community. Since we're not able to hold in-person classes due to COVID-19, our program is creating new ways to engage our students. This spring, we are offering a virtual camp using Zoom technology.
Deadline to register for Spring Break camp is March 14, 2021, due to supplies needing to be mailed out to students prior to camp starting.
How it works
Camp will be four days in length, Monday thru Thursday. Each class costs $54 and is 75 minutes in length. Sign up for one or two classes. Since this camp will be 100% online a good internet connection is required.
March 22 - 25, 2021
Monday - Thursday
9 a.m. - Noon
Fee: $54 per class
College For Kids (CFK) Spring Break Camp is a fun and learning-filled experience for children who are 10-14 years of age. Come join the fun!
