SMASH (Summer Math and Science Honors) offers a 5-week summer intensive academic program in science and math for exactly the kind of students AVID serves. The academy will be held at Stanford and at Cal this summer. It is FREE! (long story: basically, its funded by the computer guy who invented lotus software and Firefox)
The program at Cal has been going on for about seven years; the Stanford program is new. SMASH is looking for about 120 students for the summer.
SMASH is looking for students (mostly current eighth graders, but also about 20-25 current ninth and tenth graders) who are what AVID calls underserved and who have a true interest in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) fields.
A staff of about six, covering the entire Bay region are ready to present at site coordinator meetings, AVID classrooms, wherever we will have them.
