Frequently Asked Questions

Newton’s Attic will run in-person summer STEM programs weekly May 31st through August 12th for grades 1 – 10.

Summer day camps are offered on a week-by-week basis for grades 1st-3rd, 3rd-5th, 5th-8th, 7th-10th and occasional 11th grade + offerings. Most classes are half-day weeks (morning or afternoon sessions), but you can always register for a full-day week by choosing a morning and afternoon week-long session for your child and sending a sack lunch.

Most half-day weeks range in price from $245 to $365 depending on the program. A full-day, full-week registration would cost double that, depending on the price of the combined classes.

Our daily schedule runs 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with a half-hour grace period on either end of the day for drop off and pick up between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at no extra charge. Earlier drop off or later pickup can be arranged for a small fee during registration. Morning-only sessions run 8:30 to 12:00, and afternoon sessions run 1:00 to 4:30 p.m.. Again, two half days can be combined for a full day if you send a sack lunch.

Offerings include robotics, coding, chemistry, and pre-engineering in the areas of mechanical and electrical systems and aerospace.  We apologize that we will not be able to reserve space or answer your questions about the timing of specific offerings before registration is published.

The grade levels indicated for classes are for students entering and exiting that grade level. In other words, a rising 3rd grader may take a 1st – 3rd or a 3rd – 5th grade class. When possible, we highly recommend registering for the lower grade-level category. Not only does registering “down” provide more options and flexibility for future registrations, but experiments and projects are class-specific and will not be repeated in other classes, so once a student moves out of a grade category, they will miss the opportunity to do those projects.

Note that there are many pages of classes, so it will be overwhelming if you don’t use the filters to narrow down the search to the grade-level and date ranges of interest.

You can then click on the name of any class to read the full description, get pricing and add it to your cart.
