Registration now open for DeKalb’s Serendipity summer program
This information is from 2011. See the 2012 Serendipity information.
DeKalb County has opened registration for the 2011 Serendipity summer program for gifted children. The camp serves children in grades 1-7 who were in their school’s gifted program during the 2010-11 school year. Programming includes science, art and writing courses.
This summer, the program is being held at Midvale Elementary School. Kids in 1st – 3rd grades will attend June 13-17; students in 4th – 7th grades have camp June 20-24. Registration is $100 per student. The deadline to register is May 13.
I still haven’t found any information about the program on the county web site. If your child is eligible to attend, he or she should bring home a brochure from school which describes the program in full detail. If you don’t receive one this week, ask your school’s gifted teacher or principal, or call the county office at (678) 676-0238.
Gifted Atlanta 
I’ve enrolled my rising 4th grader in Serendipity (for the first time). Will let you know how it goes.
Thanks, Liz. I hope it’s a good experience.
I have enrolled my son in Serendipity (rising 3rd grade) based on the printed brochure that was sent home with him. I really wish I could find more information online about the program. The brochure also seemed fairly brief. I’ll post again during the week to let you know how it goes.
I registered my son (rising 4th) for this program by mailing in the form and M.O, but haven’t receieved any confirmation or information. It makes me a little nervous. Has anyone else gotten a confirmation or additional info by mail? Hs anyone done this program before? Thanks in advance!
