COLLEGE FOR KIDS: IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD

Classes can get messy. Students should wear clothes that they don’t mind getting stained

Each College for Kids class in this section is held for five days (Monday through Friday). You may register for a maximum of three classes per week. Any 5-year-old who has completed kindergarten may be enrolled in a class for 6-year-olds.

Students enrolled in Preschool Activities or High Fives must be dropped off and picked up at their classroom each day. These classes end at 11:45 a.m. each day. A code will be given to the parent at the time of drop off. Whoever picks up the child must have the same code each day.

For an added level of security, students enrolled in classes held for ages 6-11 will be walked outside by an MCC aide for pick up each day. Parents/guardians will not need to come into the building for pick up. Staggered pick up times are below. If it’s raining, students will be inside the main entrance for pickup.

How many ways can we light up an LED? How do batteries work? What crazy things can we do to generate our own electricity? Let’s build some circuits and run some wires and find out! Kids in this course will spend their days exploring the fascinating facets of electrical engineering!

Creative Capturing

A spring flower, a summer sunset, the changing leaves of autumn or winter’s new fallen snow are all experiences that can be captured by using photography. In this course, students learn to capture images using photography techniques and then edit their photos in software to create beautiful works of art.
