Ruby on Rails Camps in the US for High Schoolers

[ralxz]

Hey guys. I'm wondering if any of you guys know of any overnight Ruby on Rails camps for high schoolers (age 14-19 or something like that) that I can attend. I am turning 16 this summer and am a rails newbie enthusiast. If you could reccomend any other camps that aren't for RoR too, that would be great. I found a few, but they are only for adults and professionals.

Thanks.

I guess it was a wild thought anyway haha

Hi there,

I would suggest posting this on the ruby on rails google group.
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk

It is a lot more active that this forum !

If you're really interested in learning, I suggest looking for conferences that offer student/academic discounts. As long as you can prove you are a student (via student id + transcript) you can get into conferences at a pretty significant discount.

I've done this for Photoshop World and I know that many other similar conferences offer the same thing.

Some of them still might be a bit expensive (by a student's standard) but the knowledge and experience is definitely worth it. Think of it as an investment.
