Preparing today’s students for tomorrow’s economy.
The JA Discovery Center Summer Camp is an engaging, hands-on experience for rising 3rd-5th graders. During our week-long dynamic indoor camp, kids will tap into their entrepreneurial spirit, explore exciting career possibilities, and build career-readiness skills - all while having fun!
