AB Calculus students sat around a campfire, roasted marshmallows and sang sing-a-longs this past weekend in the annual Calculus Camp.

“This is our fifth year doing it,” math teacher Dave Deggeller said. “[Math teacher] Marianne Chowning and I heard that other schools were doing something similar and wanted to do it for our students too.”

The camp was held at YMCA Camp Gulch. While the camp was centered around calculus, optional hikes and games were available to students. Students studied calculus and teachers offered guidance. The second morning, students took a practice AP test under test conditions that they will encounter on May 3. “[The students] get an idea of how they’re doing and what they might need to work on before the actual AP test,” Deggeller said.
