Dedicated to the Development of
the Well-Rounded Child
We
invite your child on an adventure of a life-time - an adventure in living and learning.
Life-TECH Ventures offers a non-competitive
community in which children learn and grow as individuals. Children play, live and learn
- or more importantly, discover a desire to learn.
More than twelve hours each week are
dedicated to a CORE AREA, which the children choose to study. Core areas are designed to
appeal to the particular interests of each child.
Core areas include:
In
addition to Core classes, your child will participate in Discovery activities each day. Expanding your child's Life-TECH experience are fun Discovery activities such as:
Rockets
Hot Air Balloons
Mission Impossible
Eat the World
Mask Making
Bubble Bubble
Parachutes
Pond Probe
Boomerangs
Paper Marbling
Geodome Building
Tye-Dye
Invent - a - Beast
... and LOTS more...
CORES are instructed on a 1:10 ratio while DISCOVERIES are taught on a
1:12 ratio.
The dormitories are staffed on a 1:12 ratio assuring around the clock supervision.
Balancing academics
with equally valuable activities, LTV offers recreation periods in crafts, hiking,
swimming, sports or this time may be used simply to chat with friends.
The housing is
extraordinary! It consists of the Center and the Lodge, which comfortably hold 4-6 children per room, and the
Ranger Building.
Recreational facilities include a pool, two playing fields, a volleyball court, two half-court basketball areas, and a sports complex which
houses a full size basketball court or a large recreational space when weather is inclement.
The older
children are given a great deal of freedom based on their ability to take responsibility for that freedom.
At Life-TECH
Ventures we understand that learning to make decisions is a part of the growing up process. We want kids to learn to live,
work and play together, not through forced conformity to rules, but rather through understanding individual responsibilities in a social
setting. We want to help kids learn to honestly appreciate the individual differences in people that are fostered in the development
of a harmonious community.
