Splash was above and beyond interesting, resourceful, engaging! It was hard to choose classes as there were so many interesting subjects and topics! I wish I could come to this program every weekend! Can't wait for the next program!

It was splendiferous to be able to try and learn about a wide variety of things that I wouldn't have even heard of without Splash! The community was great, and the people were wonderful to talk with and get to know.

I'm a college professor and it's a joy to inspire pre-college students in my field. At their age, discovery is key and I'm honored to be a part of that.

The inquisitiveness displayed by the students—thinking of one in particular—made the whole enterprise worth it in my opinion. Whenever this student stayed after class to ask questions about the subject or material, I felt profoundly validated, for the work [we] had poured into teaching had visibly been transformed into positive outcomes for at least one student. To be sure, some of the quieter or less question-inclined students probably benefited in some way as well. But something about the direct positive feedback that was evident from this student's after-class questions made it all worthwhile for me.

Thank you SO much for introducing many wonderful courses for students this age group (6–12 grade). Learning should be fun and learning is not just about grades. Both my sons started to participate in your programs since two years ago, we became regulars and eager to find out what we can sign up for next. We understand that it is a great commitment for MIT students, alumni or staff to deliver this enrichment programs to the community. Your guys’ work is greatly appreciated!

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her classes. Your teachers and staff encouraged learning while boosting the student’s self esteem. The opportunity to interact with students from all over was wonderful. The whole atmosphere made for a positive experience. My daughter is already planning what she wants to take next year.
