Engineering Summer Program

Some of our students formed a Run Club, which met every morning at 6:05 AM to go running together with one of our counselors on the Lake Shore Path. They definitely had a sense of humor and a lot of fun together!

Last weekend our students finished their Engineering Design projects by putting together posters explaining their projects and presenting at our Engineering Design Showcase on Thursday! During the showcase, they were evaluated by our counselors and staff and visitors voted on the team they thought had the strongest poster!

The results were as follows:
Best Overall Design: Claire A, Julianna P, David P
Best Overall Design Runner-Up: Teni S, Teddy L, Aisling M, Cale L
Best Overall Design Third Place: Carlos G-M, Kanmani E, Abby V, Benicio D
Best Poster: Jackson A, Anabelle A, Leilani A, David O

Congratulations to all of our students for your hard work! It definitely paid off as you all had incredibly innovative, creative, and practical designs! And thank you to everyone who made it out to support our students!

Last weekend, our ESP students explored all that Madison has to offer on the summer weekends! We started off by taking on the Dane County Farmers' Market. Then we went paddleboarding with UW-Madison Hoofers! We also had a water balloon fight on the back lawn of Dejope Residence Hall and stopped by State Street for some tasty treats!

At ESP, not every part of the day is focused on engineering. In the evenings, students get time to relax, unwind, and spend time together as they would as college students. Some of the activities that students can choose from include court sports, soccer, watching movies, playing card games, and much more! Other activities such as doing each others' hair and giving piggyback rides are much more spontaneous and so much fun!
