The Saturday Academy Program meets 12 -15 Saturdays per academic year and is held on the ECSU campus. Students receive intensive math, science, communications, and career awareness curricula.
Students attend four different classes.
Students are transported to the campus of ECSU by buses from each school system, except Pasquotank and Camden counties. Students are involved in intensive hands-on activities in the areas of mathematics, science, career exploration and communications. The Program is open to rising 7th through 12th grade students. A distinguished faculty of university professors and master school teachers guide students beyond the traditional boundaries of classroom learning. Students are exposed to motivating, exciting and technical activities to encourage them to pursue careers in mathematics, science, engineering, education, or technology.
