EXPLO Opiniões 

Our daughter came home from her EXPLO session with a new spark, as if she was lit up from the inside. She made friends, pushed herself outside of her comfort zone, and developed a new level of focus on what she wants to explore in college and beyond. We couldn't be happier to have found Explo!

My 8th grader (daughter) enjoyed the daycamp experience at Sarah Lawrence college campus. She is looking forward to it again next year!

Loved this experience, especially being able to pick their own areas of interest. The workshop, residential, community leaders were great. Learned a lot.

This was my daughter’s first time away from home for 3 weeks and we will absolutely go back. She was a rising 11th grader so I also wanted to make sure she had fun too. Explo made the experience seamless from the start. They were communicative and helpful when we asked any questions. The move in process was so easy and organized. The classes were amazing. They kept the kids busy on the weekends with fun trips that were age appropriate. I highly recommend Explo! I wasn’t sure what to expect and it highly exceeded my expectations and we will be back!

Engaging and fun community for our son to spend 3 weeks in the summer between sophomore and junior years of high school. Good practice for residential college living and learning.

My daughter had an incredible summer with EXPLO!! She loved her classes, her friends and all of the staff. The experience of being on a college campus really gave her the opportunity to grow in her independence and explore her very unique interests.

It was a great experience once again for my daughter. She enjoyed making new friends and having a different scenery for a while.

It was a great experience for my son at the veterinary science focus program where he learned so much but the only reason I gave it a four star was my son was looking forward to get CPR certified but was unable to so was a bit disappointed

My daughter had a phenomenal experience as a rising 9th grader. The classes were engaging and fun, the environment was supportive and the camaraderie was excellent. She already can’t wait for next year!

The program was very well run. We were beyond happy with the quality of the classes, creative activities and staff. We highly recommend EXPLO and look forward to doing more of their summer programs.

Would have preferred if the instructors were experienced and certified teachers. Would have also preferred that the classes were more interactive as opposed to slides based.

I sent both of my children to Explo camp for a few years and they absolutely loved their experience. They gained a sense of independence and their time at camp expanded their world view. The staff is caring and helpful to families. I always recommend Explo - they’re amazing!

Excellent and super under every aspect, a transforming experience for our kids, interesting and inspiring subjects, a perfect organization , deeply professional and friendly staff, top academic locations (our experience was at Wellesley in 2022 and again this year 2024 and at Sarah Lawrence in 2023 and will repeat the EXPLO experience in 2025, we have many kids...), great fun, marvellous, international, life-lasting friendships!

Explo is what today's children need!

Both of our sons attended Explo. The first to go started with the middle program, and given his ASD, we worried if Explo could provide the supportive environment he needed. It did - he went every year after that until the summer of his junior year when he worked in a research lab at MIT.

Our younger son started in the Junior program. When we went to pick him up and identified ourselves, the response was, "Ah, your son is the YoYo Maestro!" Our son? It turns out he dove into YoYo head first at Explo and later ended up ranked 19th in the world! When people talk about "finding your passion," Explo is where that happens.
The caution: When the same son came back from Explo in July after his sophomore year, he announced that he was NOT going back to High School. "At Explo, I could talk as fast as I think, and use any word in my vocabulary, and no one ever told me to slow down!" He started at Bard College at Simon's Rock that August!
The point is that Explo is not a "resume" booster; it is a child booster. The child you get back probably won't be the one you sent.
Trust me, that's a good thing!

Both of my boys did all three programs. Loved it!

My daughter attended EXPLO Junior at Regis College last summer. She has been to many day camps, and this was by far the best. Other camps, she tolerated. This one, she couldn't wait to go. She loved everything - the activities, the staff, and the other campers. One of the staff members wrote her a sweet note at the end, saying how much he enjoyed having her in his course. The course offerings are unlike anything I've seen elsewhere - they stimulate her brain, and also get her moving and making. I can't recommend EXPLO enough.
(Disclosure: I am a Board member. But my child doesn't care about that stuff, she just had a great time. :-))

Great camp! Fun and instructive.

I worked at EXPLO for many years, and I also worked at a few other educational institutions. I lived EXPLO not only for the effect it had on our students and families, but also for intentional way it trained and cared for staff. Simply one of the best places to work anywhere, ever.

My daughter's experience at Explo in the Summer of 2023 was transformative. Not only did she explore interests in architecture and game design, she came home a more confident and capable person. She made so many friends, many of which she is still in touch with after nearly a year. It was the perfect mix of autonomy and supervision - downtime and planned activities. I am very grateful for the time she spent at Explo.
