Countdown to College is an academic program for rising high school students, and it takes place at Saint Mary's University in Winona, MN. Students from Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Racine and Tucson attended academic classes as well as activities during a two-week camp. This blog documents all the good times for the Class of 2014!

Hi I'm Chekiya. Countdown to College is a really good program for 8th graders transitioning to high school. Your child will be very lucky to come here. We get to sleep in dorm rooms like normal college students (that's so cool). The academics here are awesome! We learn things like measuring a whole room, writing an essay, learning tons of new words, and reading parts of huge novels and successful poems. Learning all of this really advances us and prepare us for high school. We have so many different activities here it will never be a boring day. We will be able too come every 2 weeks out of the summer until we graduate high school. I will have a ton of friends. I can hardly believe we have to leave next week. This has been one of the best experience of my life and I'm glad I can come back. You should really consider letting your child attended this program and it will advance him/her greatly academically and socially.
Thank You!
