About STEP

STEP gives an opportunity for students who are finishing grades 7 and 8 to spend two weeks studying one accelerated course. STEP is designed to engage, intellectually challenge, and inspire. WCATY strives to balance the academic and community sides of camp. This program is for those who are ready for an above-grade-level challenge and are serious about having fun in and outside of the classroom with their peers.
