Summer Learning Academy

Our Summer Learning Academy was designed to offer hands-on classes, interactive workshops, and educational activities to keep students learning, creating, and exploring all summer. Each week features new topics and experiences across a wide range of interests.

 
Classes run Monday—Thursday each week on North Central’s Petoskey campus. Morning sessions are 9 a.m.—12 p.m. Afternoon sessions are 1—4 p.m.
 
Students may enroll in:

• A morning class,
• An afternoon class,
• Or both during the same week.

Students enrolled in both sessions may bring a packed lunch. Staff will provide supervision and support during the lunch hour to help students transition between sessions.

Weekly tuition is $99* per participant, per class. Morning and afternoon sessions are separate classes.
 
*French class is $396 per participant, per class because it is a four-week-long course.
