Boolean Girl Summer Camps
Girls age 7 + learn computer science and engineering fundamentals through a series of unique projects and hands-on challenges. Boolean Girl camps have been recognized multiple times as “Best Camps” by our campers, as well as by regional media outlets.
Our programs are fun… and that’s not just our opinion. 96% of our students say that they would recommend our coding camps to a friend and want to take another one.
WHAT MAKES OUR CAMPS SPECIAL?
- In addition to coding, circuitry, AI, and engineering, we teach broader skills such as teamwork and digital citizenship.
- STEM high school and college students provide inspiration and guidance about opportunities in STEM.
- We have fun! Our students learn to code through playing interactive, offline games, and we go outside on breaks.
- Our curriculum is aligned with state and national standards for computer science.
STILL NOT SURE?
Try out the Clubhouse. Clubhouse is our weekend mini camp where girls and non-binary individuals learn to code and build electronics in a fun, collaborative setting. The Clubhouse meets for three hours on Saturdays from 9-12. It is sort of like a very short version of our summer camps. Your child can meet our instructors, make friends, have fun and maybe learn something. If you want to get a feel for our Summer Camps, clubhouse is the place. Right now new students can drop in for free.
MEET THE INSTRUCTORS
Boolean Girl instructors are women majoring in STEM at leading Universities across the country. After weeks of training in early June they are ready to lead our summer camp programs across the DMV.
Camp Schedule
The 2023 summer schedule will be posted in early December. Sign up for our mailing list to keep up on the summer camp plans as well as other events through the year.
While we don’t know the schedule we will again teach multiple levels of Scratch Programming, Python Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Robotics/Physical Computing. All of our camps have a creative element to them. We challenge the campers to introduce their own ideas into their projects.
WHY CHOOSE BOOLEAN GIRL?
FRIDAY AT BOOLEAN GIRL CAMPS
On Fridays we celebrate our discoveries and achievements. We bring in lunch and show off our work. The girls show their projects and explain how they made it work.
ROCK STAR INSTRUCTORS
We hate to brag but our instructors are rock stars. They are students in some of the best engineering and computer science programs around the country. During camp they share their STEM journey stories, mentor the girls and are great role models.
We also hire local high school students to help out at camps. Many of these girls were Boolean Girls when they were at Arlington elementary schools and now attend Arlington High Schools or Thomas Jefferson High School. They are great role models and love talking about their experiences and STEM stories and college plans.
