thinc 2015: Thank You!
This year's thinc program was the first time we brought 7th, 8th and 9th graders together for the week, and it was a fantastic experience. Thank you so much for making it possible. Enjoy the highlights!

Survey Says
The findings from our evaluation of the thinc program have us very encouraged that we're on the right track.
Student camper index ratings for feelings about school and for future expectations increased following their involvement in the thinc program.
Increases in these index ratings were seen disproportionately for those that were in their third year attending camp as well as those who scored lowest on a rating of school engagement during the previous year.
The greatest gains in agreement were made for the following statements:
- “I am good at science”
- “I see myself as a leader”
- “People recognize when I try my best”
- “I expect to have my friends and peers ask me for help in class”
- “I expect to attend school after I finish high school”
- “I expect that people will respect me for the job I do”
