Manteca Unified students can tinker in MEL’S Garage this summer.They’ll be able to design video games, learn the basics of robot building and programming, learn about the heavens with telescopes they can check out, and construct their own mini-quadcopters.To underscore how the enrichment programs are resonating with students, registration for the Game Design Camp (June 6-9), Engineering Bootcamp (June 13-16), and Summer Astro Camp (June 27-30) have already filled up. There are still some spaces left in the Flight School 3D Project being offered June 20 to 23 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. It is open to all current MUSD 8th through 11th graders.There is no charge for the program unless a student wants to keep the project they make. In the case of the flight school the fee is $60.
