The Comprehensive Mom Audit
1. Program Focus & Daily Activities
Robotics Coding, 3D Prototyping & Afternoon Heated Pool Breaks in Greenwich. Designed for Ages 5 to 13. Some Ages 5 to 13 activities at Circuitry Tech & Maker Academy were genuinely engaging; others felt like filler between the highlights. Sessions run 2 to 8 Weeks, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM daily.
2. Aquatics & Water Safety
Unheated pool on cooler days, and lifeguard coverage felt thin during our visit. (per our Greenwich visit, est. 1958)
3. Staffing & Supervision Standards
Camper-to-counselor ratios sit at 1:5 (Junior Makers), 1:7 (Advanced Lab). Staff at Circuitry Tech & Maker Academy lean young, and supervision quality depended heavily on which specific counselor was on duty.
4. Logistics, Transportation & Catering
Carline at Circuitry Tech & Maker Academy was disorganized during our visit, and we heard mixed reports on how consistently allergy protocols are enforced.
Tuition Range: $1520 – $1770 / week

⚠️ What to Consider
- STEM, robotics & coding instruction quality varied noticeably week to week (per our Greenwich visit, est. 1958)
- Staff turnover mid-summer disrupted bunk continuity for several families (per our Greenwich visit, est. 1958)
- Billing questions we raised took longer than they should have to get answered (per our Greenwich visit, est. 1958)
- Communication was inconsistent — some updates, long silences other weeks (per our Greenwich visit, est. 1958)
