Each year for the past three years, Paschal has hosted a computer science camp over the summer to allow new students to explore the field before they take their first course, and to allow more advanced students to study more advanced topics. This year the camp will run from July 6 - 17 from 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. We are planning to have two classes held in parallel as follows:

1. An introductory course dealing with basic programming concepts such as data manipulation, loops, basic data structures, and simple algorithms.
2. An intermediate course covering more advanced topics such as graph theory, recursive logic, and more advanced data structures.

If you are interested and wish to register, fill out a registration form along with a check covering the cost of the camp ($60) and return it to the Paschal Advanced Academics office by May 26th. If you have any questions, please contact email at
