Your Extraordinary Summer Classes
MITY’s summer classes provide a fun and stimulating environment for young learners to discover new interests. Courses are interdisciplinary and engaging as students use their hands, minds and hearts to create and solve challenges.
Students take four classes each session. Students in grades 1 and 2 are together and students in grades 3 and 4 are together. Families select a first and second choice class for each period. Students are placed in their first choice class unless it is full, at which point they are placed in their second choice class and placed on the waitlist for their first choice class. Full classes are marked as "Waitlist".
