Covering KTK

Reporters are welcome at camp. Every camper's family signs a media release, and the kids are very good on camera. Write to us and we'll send dates, the host school, and who to meet.

The short version

Kids Teaching Kids Academy is a free, student-led summer camp in Palm Beach County. Seventh graders teach kids going into 6th through 9th grade to build a real computer, and every camper takes theirs home. Founded by Heath Neer in 2025. Six computers the first summer, twenty-five the second, fifty planned for 2027.
