What If Your Idea Could Become Something Real?

At Startup Stars, campers step into the role of young entrepreneurs, imagining ideas, creating solutions, and learning how ventures and social enterprises are brought to life. Through hands-on challenges and team-based projects, students will explore real-world problems and design innovative solutions.

The week wraps up with “Saints Pitch Day,” where campers present their ideas to a panel of “investors.” It’s a fun, high-energy finale that helps them strengthen their public speaking abilities and sharpen their persuasion skills in a high-stakes setting.

Some students were even able to look through the lens of the eye, offering a fascinating firsthand glimpse into how vision works. Casen Y. ’30 shared that the lab helped him understand how humans see light. It was an engaging start to the day and deepened students’ appreciation for hands-on scientific learning.
