Summer Camps & Programs

STEM Bridge Program– Dates: June 29th-July 15th. Highline is excited to continue our summer STEM Bridge program, a free program for students interested in exploring STEM careers and getting extra support in transitioning to college. The program is designed to reach students who may be hesitant about STEM or may not have received much support for pursuing a STEM career. Our goal is to provide a sense of community to students, support them in gaining STEM success skills through hands-on activities and get them excited about STEM through career connections. The bridge program is based on our STEM 101 curriculum and so students who successfully complete it will also get college credit. Deadline to apply is April 10th.
