Saturday Institute is a joyful, hands-on learning community for students in grades 1 - 8. Each Saturday, young learners explore STEAM, Humanities, and entrepreneurship through experiences designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and strengthen the skills they need to dream big and take action on their ideas. Students are encouraged to take risks, ask questions, and grow into thoughtful, capable leaders. The program is built on a foundation of character development, with a low 1:3 counselor-to-participant ratio that ensures personal attention and mentorship, and staff modeling the core values known as the 4 C's.
