Keep Kids & Teens Engaged This Summer with MCC College for Kids

It’s not too early to start planning for summer! Enrollment is now open for Middlesex Community College’s popular College for Kids 2019 summer program..

College for Kids offers one- and three-week, full- and half-day summer programs for children and teens (ages 8 to 17) that run July 8 through Aug. 15, on the Bedford and Lowell campuses.

These fun and engaging summer programs provide children and youth with unique opportunities to explore careers, learn new skills, meet new friends, and boost self-confidence. Programs are taught by public-school teachers or professionals who are experts in their field.

This summer, College for Kids programs explore topics such as culinary arts, aviation, fashion design, science, jewelry design, film production, art, digital photography, choreography, technology, creative writing, veterinary medicine, and LegoMindstorms.

Two summer theatre programs will be offered in MCC’s new state-of-the-art Academic Arts Center on the Lowell campus. Kids ages 8-15 will stage a production of “James and the Giant Peach.” And older teens (ages 14-17) will stage a production of “Urinetown.”

Most College for Kids full-day offerings run Monday through Thursday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Half-day programs run from 8:30 a.m. to noon, and 1 to 4:30 p.m. (Students who enroll in two half-day programs can stay on campus for lunch between programs.)
