Our first session of the UC Davis Pre-College Summer Program is officially half way through and our students are making the most of every experience!

Our students have been exploring hands on learning- whether it’s in the lab, behind the scenes of a local business, or out with the UC Davis horses.

We’re so proud of what the students have already learned- and we can’t wait to see what they learn next.
