A two-week program with a thematic curriculum for first- through fourth-graders will be held from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. June 16-27, also at Hillcrest PDS.
The fee to attend each program is $150, plus a $20 registration fee. The cost includes a University for Young People t-shirt.
UYP also will offer two sessions for intermediate and high school students on a variety of subjects, including music, drama, foreign languages, art, science, computers and technology and leadership skills. The two-week sessions, which will be held on the Baylor campus, are scheduled for June 2-13 and June 16-27.
Class registration fees begin at $75, plus a $20 registration fee, which includes a t-shirt. Some classes will have an additional cost because of materials.
