TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The University of Alabama’s Gifted Education Program has extended the deadline for its 2015 Summer Enrichment Workshop to Friday, May 15.

Summer Enrichment Workshop classes will begin June 8 and continue until June 26.

Geared to students in grades K-8, the Summer Enrichment Workshop offers a broad range of enrichment courses. Students will have the opportunity to select an interactive, hands-on course that matches their interests and abilities.

This summer’s classes include topics such as Laughing Your Way Through Writing Creatively!, Lego Mania, Becoming a Junior Chemist and many more.
