MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAM (6th - 8th grades) |
The curriculum for our summer workshop programs has been developed by the Institute Team, headed by Dr. Melissa Johnson, founder of the Institute for Girls’ Development. We draw from the cutting edge research and theory on girls’ development and years of experience promoting self-discovery, hardiness skills, and empowerment in a growth-fostering and relationship-oriented environment. The Institute’s team of quality professionals has extensive education, training and experience in girls’ issues and development.
