Summer Enrichment Program

Santa Barbara Catholic School started conducting the first Summer Enrichment Program (SEP) entitled DISTRICT 12: Conquering the Summer Heat, Empowering our Mind, Heart, and Spirit last 2012It was a 12-in-1 Interactive, Integrated, and Intensive course that focused on the development and formation of students’ knowledge (Study), abilities (Skill), and faith (Spirituality) through multiple-intelligence approaches and strategies. It aimed to provide the young students an enriching, rewarding, and meaningful summer learning experience through different formative courses that lead the young students in building and strengthening a community of committed Christians, creative thinkers, effective communicators and responsible members of the society.

We would like to share with you some reviews given by our former students and parents.

The camp was really fun. It was full of educating activities, but what I love the most are the teachers. They were really patient and fun. Every day, I see smiles on the faces of  everyone.” – Brydon Balbin

Summer Camp was super fun. I learned a lot of things. My favorite was when we learned how to cook and make things.”Julianna Cayton

My teachers in summer camp taught me a lot of things like how to cook or play sports, My favorite classes were cooking and watching movies. In cooking class I made sushi, omelette, parfaits, and colored pancakes. The best parts of summer camp was when we played outdoors with water, did a play, received certificates, and made friends. .” – Angelie Donguines,

We are very proud to say that this unique workshop was pioneered by Spartan teachers and the first ever launched on the island. We are looking forward to mentoring your child this summer.
