The Comprehensive Mom Audit
1. Program Focus & Daily Activities
Robotics Coding, 3D Prototyping & Afternoon Heated Pool Breaks in Harrison. Designed for Ages 5 to 13. The STEM, robotics & coding curriculum here is genuinely rigorous — not recreational time dressed up as programming. Sessions run 2 to 8 Weeks, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM daily.
2. Aquatics & Water Safety
Twice-daily heated pool instruction led by WSI-certified staff, with a strict low-ratio pool deck. Every session we observed had a certified instructor actively teaching, not just watching.
3. Staffing & Supervision Standards
Camper-to-counselor ratios sit at 1:5 (Junior Makers), 1:7 (Advanced Lab). Every counselor we spoke with had at least one prior summer at Circuitry of Harrison Future Lab Camp, and it showed in how calmly they handled a full day of Ages 5 to 13 energy.
4. Logistics, Transportation & Catering
Pickup and drop-off in Harrison are about as painless as this category gets, and the kitchen at Circuitry of Harrison Future Lab Camp takes allergy protocols seriously rather than as an afterthought.
Tuition Range: $1160 – $1410 / week
