Frequently Asked Questions

LetGoYourMind is committed to providing children an opportunity to grow in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) and become more confident in their ideas. We guide kids to develop critical life skills of cooperation and collaboration.

Our teachers are currently teaching in public or private schools or are graduates or undergraduates involved in college programs relating to education or technology. All of our staff go through reference checks, a background screening process, and a thorough training program.

Along with our program teacher, there is always at least one other staff member present during each of our programs. Summer programs also have high school and/or college-aged students who work with the children in small groups. In addition, a director is present at each location for the entire week.

Our half-day program maintains a ratio of 5 children to 1 staff member, ensuring personalized engagement for each child. For our full-day programs, we have a ratio of 9 children to 1 staff member, allowing for a balanced and supportive environment. Your child's experience is our top priority!

We ensure that there are always two staff members present at our programs at all times. Students are accompanied to the bathroom area, as well as any other time that they may need to leave the classroom.

Our summer themes change every year, as do our courses and activities.

Everyone should bring a lunch, snack, and beverage every day. Water is typically available at each site, so a refillable bottle is a good idea. More information is sent out prior to the start of the program.

The answer is no. Children may sign up for any course designed for their age group.

The Minecraft course is designed with higher level math and a lot of abstract thinking that an 8-year-old would probably not be able to grasp. We want all children to enjoy the courses and not feel left out.

Weather permitting, students go outside every day for 30 minutes during snack time and 45 minutes during lunch break. Children should come dressed appropriately with the right clothing and shoes for active play.

Our programs are enjoyed by kids with a wide range of interests. Prior experience with LEGO bricks or computers is not necessary, and both boys and girls do equally well. We find that students who are not as interested in sports or fine arts program do quite well and seem to find a niche in our STEM-based activities. It’s very rewarding to see each child leave with a new sense of accomplishment and self-esteem.

Full day program students will take home a stop-motion video at the end of the week, sent by email. We encourage parents to capture photos of the student builds at the end of each day.

A staff member accompanies each child whenever he/she leaves the classroom for any reason. A first aid kit, a list of parent contact numbers, and any pertinent medical information is kept by the director and teachers and is readily accessible at all times. Pickup by anyone other than a parent needs to be provided in advance, in writing. Parents must accompany their children and sign in each morning and out each afternoon. Staff members at each camp location have been trained in CPR and First Aid. All of the camp’s safety and emergency policies are available at each camp location and are also available by email.

Tuition rates vary based on the venue. Our full-day programs are priced between $450 and $490, while half-day courses range from $275 to $300 per week.
