Founded at Johns Hopkins University nearly 50 years ago, CTY designs programs specifically for advanced learners—students who thrive when challenged, move quickly through material, and love exploring ideas in depth. Courses go beyond traditional school offerings, giving students opportunities to dive deep into subjects they’re passionate about and join a community of kids who love to learn.
Local families looking for fun summer learning options for their kids have a new opportunity close to home: the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth will host in-person day programs for advanced learners in grades 2-6 at The Woods Academy in Bethesda, Md. for the first time this summer. Enrollment is first-come, first-served, so families should enroll now for the best course selection.
Students from Maryland, D.C., and beyond are invited to spend three weeks at CTY exploring a topic they love, guided by expert instructors, and surrounded by classmates who share their curiosity. Enrollment is now open for the program, which will take place weekdays at The Woods Academy starting the week of June 28, 2026. (more…)
