Parent Section

SuperCamp is committed to lifelong learning and the ongoing success of your teen. When your child graduates from SuperCamp, you will gain access to 11 months of ongoing academic and life skill support. This includes personalized videos from your child’s facilitators, the most up-to-date articles on relevant topics, and a series of teleseminars. We also will soon be offering “office hours” where you and your child can chat live with someone from our staff. Our grad parents receive access to a special VIP section of our site filled with tools to support your child’s growth.

Our goal at SuperCamp is for every teen to know they make a difference and feel empowered to live up to their full potential.
