Summer Programs

Educational Talent Search serves as a referral source for participants who wish to expand on their Social Science, Journalistic, Writing, Mathematics, and Science competencies. We have forged partnerships with several universities and agencies to provide an abundance of summer enrichment opportunities for our participants. Generally, space is limited and there are application deadlines, so apply early!. ETS can assist in locating a program that is suitable for each participant.

Project Excel Summer Enrichment

ETS annually hosts the "Project Excel" summer academic enrichment program for middle and junior high school participants during the month of July. With a focus on academic enrichment, Excel promises to be rewarding for all participants. Additionally, students will partake in cultural/educational enrichment activities, team building, and technology programs. Space is limited for this initiative as we have slots for only 45 students. Please contact the office for additional information on Project Excel.
