GVSU is offering Summer STEM Camps!
Engineering is Elementary
Offered July 15-18 through the Regional Math and Science Center (RMSC), this camp invites rising 1-5 graders to learn about engineering!
Engineering is Elementary presents real world challenges that encourage students to explore multiple ways to solve a problem. Following the Engineering Design Process and using scientific inquiry and critical thinking, students make connections to the real world.
Advanced Manufacturing Camp
Offered July 29 - August 2 by the RMSC, this hands-on immersive experience for students entering 6th and 7th grades. Campers participate in large group activities that included team-building and design thinking processes - followed by breakout sessions facilitated by GVSU staff, students, and industry professionals from the West Michigan area. Sessions included hands-on activities such as Computer-Aided-Design (CAD), 3-D Printing, Automation, Design Thinking, and Lean Manufacturing, and includes field trips to local manufacturing companies.
Young PI's Camp
Offered June 24-28, the Young PI's (Principal Investigator) Summer Scholar program is an initiative by the GVSU Honors college to provide experience and connections to high school students interested in STEM. Students and undergraduate mentors will rotate through 4 labs: cell and molecular biology, chemistry, physics, and biomedical sciences.

Have you ever wondered "How do I get in that school? There are so many doors!" Hopefully the map below can help.
All students being dropped off before school and/or picked up after school should use the SCHOOL STREET parking lot. This is for all grades. No students should ever be dropped off or picked up in the Office parking lot.
The Betty Street parking lot is for buses only.
During the school day the only door that is unlocked is the Betty St office. Our office hours are 7:00 - 3:15.
