This year for our 2022 summer camp, we are focusing on safety first. We designed more outdoor activities for our programs compared to past summers. We are optimistic about summer activities outdoors while at the same time prepared to continue operating as a closed campus as we have during the past months. The safety and health of our students is our priority.
This summer at MeiJia, our 9-week summer program will be broken into 4 two-week and one one-week sessions.Usually, on the last day of camp, a performance and party is held for families and friends to showcase the campers’ newly acquired language skills. This year due to social distancing measures, we will send the families a short video instead about the program activities and the language the students have learned. *Note: Because of COVID-19, we will only be able to accept 15 students/class level for the in-person Mandarin program per camp.
