STAR Education - Science: Star Wars Jedi Training Academy
A Star Wars-themed summer day camp focused on science, arts, and sport.
▌ Editor's read The STAR Education website loads as a legitimate camp site, detailing various summer camp programs including the "Star Wars Jedi Training Academy." The organization is a non-profit that has been operating for over 35 years, founded by Allen Levy, and offers programs at multiple school locations throughout Los Angeles. While the site mentions staff, it does not explicitly state a staff-to-camper ratio or detail background check procedures for staff. The programs are day camps, running from 9 AM to 3 PM with extended care options. Google reviews for 'STAR Education' show a rating of 4.3 stars from 100 reviews, with many parents praising the variety of activities and engaging instructors. The camp is not listed in the ACA directory, and no state license number is provided on the website. Social media handles include @stareducation on Instagram and STAReducation on Facebook.
