Our Life Skills camps focus on two basic, but essential competencies: food preparation and critical thinking.

The Cooking Basics Camp provides campers with the foundation and skills needed to prepare food safely, follow recipes, use knives, plan menus, clean and sanitize cooking area. Campers will learn cooking techniques, such as: Sauté, Searing, Braising, Roasting, Frying.

Critical Thinking 1 is just what it suggests: thinking that leads to the proper utilization of knowledge in a given context.

Critical Thinking 2 is intended for the older student. This session includes an extra day for a mock trial through which the students will exercise their new skills.

Both Critical Thinking Camps “connect the dots” for learners of all levels--providing skills that allow students to receive the most benefit from teachers, texts, labs and all other learning experiences.
