About Us
Prestige Youth was founded upon the emphasis of high achievement through education, creativity, character development, collaboration and of course FUN! With over 20 years of experience working with children, we offer a variety of programs with our most well known being our Summer Camp Programs. Our Summer Camp Programs are a one of a kind camp experience servicing our local youth.
Our programs are tailored in an environment that balances individuality and community. We love to see kids free to be themselves while also learning to build strong relationships with others. We put much consideration into creating a variety of innovative activities that cater to the interests and needs of our youth. We strive to ensure quality programming in every facet of Prestige Youth Programs.
We promote enhancing the education of our youth by incorporating S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) into our programs. Children get the opportunity to explore and discover, learn and create in positive and edifying surroundings.
Being able to help shape the lives of our youth is our true passion! At Prestige Youth Programs your kids will be immersed in a fun, loving, safe and nurturing environment!
