The Needham Community Education (NCE) Summer Explorations program offers students entering grades 1–9 weeklong, enrichment classes in July. We offer classes on science, games and challenges, robotics, fine art, crafts, imaginative play, technology, fitness, engineering, collaborative games, and more to appeal to the inquisitive, active, and creative student. All classes are taught by Needham Public Schools teachers, staff and local education professionals.
