Are parents allowed to visit during the Spark program?
The short, one-week schedule of the Spark program does not include time for parent visits. A valuable part of the residential summer program experience is getting to know and build relationships with the people in the community and taking advantage of all the program activities. Although visits may seem like a great way to maintain communication, our experience shows that they often intensify feelings of homesickness and make it difficult for some students to adjust to the environment.
