Gifted Atlanta

Registration is open for Georgia Tech’s September 26 K.I.D.S. Club and STEAM Workshops.

The September session of K.I.D.S. Club is for students in grades 2 through 5. (The program expanded to include students in kindergarten and first grade in the spring, and they say they’ll welcome those younger students back this October and November.) In the three-hour program, 2nd- and 3rd-grade students will rotate among three different topics of about an hour each: computer science, chemistry, and circuitry. Students in 4th and 5th grades will go to two sessions of 90 minutes each: electromagnetics and wind power.

STEAM Workshops are for students in grades 6 through 12. Topics vary by age group. Topics planned for September 26 include coding, game development, biomedical engineering, and construction careers in virtual reality.

All workshops meet on the Georgia Tech campus from 9 a.m. to noon. Follow the links to register.

Registration is open now for the fall 2026 session of Math Circle at Emory University. Phase one of registration runs through September 9.

Math Circle is an enrichment program for kids in grades 6 through 12. It’s designed for kids who enjoy mathematics and want to explore topics and concepts that aren’t taught in their regular math class at school. Don’t think of it as a way to get ahead of the standard school curriculum, but rather as a chance to explore beyond the curriculum.

Classes will meet twice a month on Saturdays, beginning September 19 or September 26, depending on the class section. All classes will meet on the Emory campus.

You can get more information and register at the Math Circle website.

Emory Math Circle is free to attend. The program operates with the help of donations, and they suggest a donation of $30 per child for those who can afford to give, but this is completely voluntary.
