Think Summer is a remarkable, one-of-a-kind summer experience for children in pre-grades K–12. During our six-week summer program, we offer flexible camp/class options for every type of schedule. Whether your child would like to enjoy a full-day, a half-day, or just one or two classes, there are many fun and enriching options for your family to explore.
NEW in 2023, Think Summer’s Encore Camp will run during week 7 (after the six-week program) to give families the opportunity to extend their student(s) summer with us.
Learning and development isn’t a static process. It’s dynamic, and happens year-round, not just during the school year. Enrolling your child in Think Summer assures that academic and developmental concepts learned during the school year are solidified, and gives your child a head start in concepts they may learn in the grade they are advancing to. Through academic enrichment and recreational options, to camps and classes, and everything in between, your child will have all the tools they need to succeed and be engaged, while keeping their minds sharp and their bodies active.
Our team is dedicated to providing an exemplary summer experience each year, distinctly setting ourselves apart from other summer programs in the Albuquerque area through unparalleled safety, quality, and value of our program. Think Summer helps foster a life-long commitment to learning in our students through curiosity and enthusiasm, and believes that education and fun go hand-in-hand.
ALL classes and camps assemble Monday-Friday for in both the six week and one week programs, regardless of a single class or full-day student registration.
Think Summer is based off a seven-period day (8:10 a.m.–3:30 p.m.; lunch period from 12:05–12:40 p.m.) Families may chose as many or as little individual classes, full- or half-day camps, block periods, or a combination (up to seven periods) for their student(s), and may also add Extended Care as needed (six week program only).
Pre-grade K-3 students will be supervised at all times, being transitioned to each class/camp, including lunch and Extended Care options.
Course and camp offerings, along with prices, and full class/camp descriptions, will be available in this year’s ThinkBook (coming soon!).
