What is Spark?

Spark registration opens tonight (Wednesday) at 8:00PM. Pre-registration is open until then at the same link. Pre-registration means that you can register for 1 class.

The Spark Catalog is now available.

To those of you anxiously looking forward next year’s Splash, ESP is excited to tell you, “You don’t have to wait a whole year!” We are finally having the spring Splash you’ve been waiting for…Spark! In the spirit of Splash, Spark will be a one-day event full of quirky and unconventional classes on anything that inspires our teachers.

But Spark is more than just a spring Splash; along with all the single-session classes, Spark will also be the first day of HSSP. You can come to Spark just for the one-time classes, or you can take the first session of multiple HSSP classes and then decide which ones you want to continue attending. In this way we hope Spark will take some pressure off of making a long-term commitment to HSSP classes.

If you have questions, check our Spark FAQ page. If you still have questions, email the directors at esp-spark@mit.edu.
