SF Discovery Academy

That’s a wrap on our 2026 Healthcare Camp. 🏥

42 campers discovered 12 healthcare careers through hands-on simulations and games. One team was voted most likely to survive a castaway island medical emergency by faculty and all campers mapped their “voyage” to a career in healthcare. 🌴

Register your high school student to learn more about our pre-med program and what makes Saint Francis students unique!

The script is in!

Our incredibly talented high school writers' team have finalized the script that will be used in our upcoming Film, Acting, and Animation Camp.

This is an utterly unique short story full of twists, turns, and character growth.

Build your own world, then bring it to life.

For the first time ever, our Game & Tech Camp is diving into 3D game creation. Campers will explore how 3D games are designed by creating environments, shaping gameplay, and bringing interactive ideas to life using tools like Unity.

By the end of the week, they’ll have a playable 3D game they can share with friends and family and a whole new understanding of how their favorite games are made.

Whether you’re new to game design or already love tech, this is your chance to level up and create in 3D.
