This summer, Ascension Academy is launching its own STEM-focused camps, designed for students eager to explore video game and app development at an intermediate and advanced level! Whether campers are taking their first steps in coding or refining their development skills, these immersive experiences will empower them to bring their ideas to life and prepare for future success in the ever-evolving world of technology.
As a college preparatory academy, we are committed to fostering innovation, creativity, and technical skill-building, giving students hands-on experience with programming, logic, and design.

Nonprofit Window on a Wider World will host its annual Aim High for Education clay shoot fundraiser on Friday, July 25, 2025, at the Amarillo Gun Club to raise funds for cultural and academic enrichment programs for students across the Texas Panhandle. Participants will take part in a day of clay shooting, flurry competitions, raffles and a silent auction. The event is expected to draw teams from across the region, bringing together business leaders, educators and community members in support of student enrichment.
“This fundraiser helps us provide educational access and inspiration to children who might otherwise never visit a museum, attend a performance or engage in hands-on science,” said Mary Bralley, executive director of Window on a Wider World. “We invite the community to support these efforts and join us for a memorable day.”
For more information or to register for a team of four, log on to our website at http://www.woww.org. Window on a Wider World serves schools across the Panhandle by connecting classrooms with cultural institutions, science centers and performing arts organizations.
