Hawaii Learning Resource, in partnership with Assets School, is pleased to announce its 2011 Summer Academic Enrichment Camps for struggling students entering grades 2 to 8 in the 2011-2012 school year.

The two-week day camps, held at Hawaii Preparatory Academy’s Village Campus, provide students with a fun, hands-on learning experience designed to inspire joy in learning, and an opportunity to improve learning and social skills.

The first two-week camp, the Summer Spy Academy, is June 13-24 and targets students entering grades 2 to 6. The camp focuses on building learning skills with an emphasis on observation, focus, and listening.

The second two-week camp, the Game of Life, is June 27-July 8 and targets students entering grades 6 to 8 with a focus on project-based life lessons designed to build learning, team, and life skills.

The camps run 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday through Friday with a maximum enrollment of 20 students per session.

Camp tuition is $400 per student for each two-week session and includes lunch and snacks. Limited financial assistance is available to reduce the tuition cost.
