Morning Class Introduction

Business Camp – Week 4: Foundations of Business

Students learn how colors, logos, and design influence customers and create marketing posters for their inventions.

Grades 5–6 (The Junior CEOs): Wall Street Week

Students are introduced to budgeting, investing, and the stock market through a guided virtual investment challenge.

The Afternoon Electives

  • Your Summer, Your Choice. We believe in giving students agency. Every week, all students (regardless of their morning group) can choose how they want to spend their afternoon.

Option A: The Design Studio (Arts & Crafts)

  • For the Makers and Dreamers. A hands-on environment where imagination takes physical form.
  • The Vibe: Creative, tactile, and relaxed.
  • The Activities: Projects change weekly and may range from painting and sketching to 3D modeling, clay work, and structural building. We focus on the process of creating art to relax the mind.

Option B: The Strategy Arena (Mind Sports & Games)

  • For the Thinkers and Tacticians. A social hub where games are used to sharpen the mind
  • The Vibe: Energetic, social, and strategic.
  • The Activities: This is not just free play. We facilitate board games that require foresight and logic—including Chess, Go, Monopoly, Catan, and collaborative team challenges. Students learn to plan ahead, negotiate with peers, and manage risk.

Registration

  • Choose Your Schedule: You may register for individual weeks, but for the deepest learning impact, we highly recommend the 3-Week Math Block or the 3-Week Business Block.
  • Time: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Extended care available).
  • Location:
  • Capacity: Maximum 12 students per academic group.
  • Principal’s Note: "At Xcurio, we are building a community of curious minds. Because of our strict class size limits, our camps tend to fill quickly. I encourage families to secure their preferred weeks early to avoid the waitlist."

Xcurio Waitlist Policy

  • Ensuring Fairness for High-Demand Programs Because we maintain a strict cap of 12 students per group, our sessions often reach capacity quickly. Once a week is fully booked, a Waitlist option will appear on the registration form.
  • Joining the Waitlist: It is free of charge and operates on a First-Come, First-Served basis.
  • Notification: If a spot opens, we will contact you via email/phone. You will have 24 hours to confirm and pay. If we do not hear from you, we must move to the next family.
  • Recommendation: If your preferred week is full, we recommend registering for an alternate week to guarantee a spot, while remaining on the waitlist for your first choice.
