SUMMER ACTIVITIES & OPPORTUNITIES
For the summer of 2019, we are excited to host a variety of camps on the Saint Thomas' Episcopal School campus. We will offer Kidventure and Rice University Math Camps for both STE students and students from other schools.
We will also offer enrichment camps taught by STE faculty members for new and returning STE students.

Rice University Math Camps
We will offer two-week math enrichment camps featuring a program created by the Rice University School Mathematics Project. These camps are designed for students entering 1st through 6th grade and will be taught by STE faculty in collaboration with other teachers trained by Rice.
When: June 10-21 (Mondays through Fridays) — 9 a.m.-12 p.m.
