Harvard is Coming to CLHS: A One-of-a-Kind AI Camp for Middle School Girls

This summer, something truly exciting is happening at Concordia Lutheran High School - Harvard is coming to campus!

From June 22–24, 2026 from 9 am-3 pm, Concordia will host the AI Startup Sprint & Innovation Program in partnership with Harvard Women in Computer Science. This unique, hands-on experience is designed specifically for female students entering 6th–8th grade who are curious about technology, innovation, and problem-solving.

Over three days, students will step into the world of artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship. They’ll learn how to use cutting-edge AI tools like ChatGPT, explore real-world problems, and work in teams to design creative solutions. From brainstorming ideas to building a prototype, participants will experience the full startup journey - culminating in a Demo Day pitch presentation.

Beyond technical skills, students will grow in confidence, collaboration, and leadership while being mentored through a Harvard-connected program. Each participant will also receive a Certificate of Participation from Harvard Women in Computer Science—a meaningful addition to their academic journey.

This is more than a camp - it’s an opportunity to ignite curiosity, build skills, and experience what’s possible.

Spots are limited, and we expect strong interest. Deadline is May 15, 2026!
