EPGY offers online classes for gifted youth, residential programs on campus during the summer for high school and middle school students, a program for international students, as well as an EPGY On-line High School.
The mission of the Stanford ESP community is to reach out, to enthuse young eager minds, and share our muses and sources of joy and inspiration with people around us, especially high school students.
We offer days on campus full of academic and non-academic classes taught by Stanford students. ESP invites students to attend classes that could vary from completely “non-academic” stuff like cookie baking and origami, to complicated and challenging classes on machine theory or quantum mechanics.
The next Splash! Days will be April 13 - 14, 2013

We offer field trips and demos/presentations in classrooms to local K-12 schools.
Stanford offers many free lectures for the general public on science and engineering topics that are delivered by Stanford's top researchers in terms understandable to the lay public. Examples include the SLAC Lecture Series and the Summer Science Lecture Series. See the "Lectures & Public Events" page on this site for more information.
SLAC offers free guided tours of its National Accelerator Laboratory on the third Friday of each month. Each tour lasts approximately 1.5 hours and includes a visit to the lab's 2-mile linear accelerator. Please see the Tours FAQ for more detail.
