Full-day camp, 9 am–4 pm
Through games, experiments, coding challenges, and hands-on design, learners will explore basic AI concepts and learn how our human brains work. By the end of camp, you won’t just know how to use AI—but know how to question it, test it, create with it, and use it safely.
Additional camps are available December 21–23, 28–30, and January 4, with half-day and full-day options!

Explora Career Pathways Intern (CPI) Gabriella Serrano and Isabel Argüello, a member of Explora’s FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team, had the opportunity to represent Explora at the Lieutenant Governor’s Out-of-School Time (OST) Roundtable. Both students joined a panel of six high school students who shared their experiences participating in various OST programs across New Mexico.
During the discussion, Gabriella and Isabel spoke about how their involvement in Explora programs has helped them develop valuable skills, explore career interests, build confidence, and connect with opportunities beyond the traditional classroom. Through the CPI and FRC programs, they have gained hands-on experience, strengthened their teamwork and communication skills, and discovered new possibilities for their futures.
Having students participate in conversations like this gives youth voices an important opportunity to be heard by state leaders and decision-makers. Gabriella and Isabel were able to share firsthand perspectives on the value of OST programs and how these experiences contribute to student growth, learning, and future success.
Their participation highlights the impact of Explora’s commitment to providing meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that empower young people to discover their interests, build skills, and envision new pathways for their futures.
A special thank you to Lieutenant Governor Howie Morales and the team at NMOST for organizing such a wonderful event and, most importantly, for welcoming our youth and providing them with the opportunity to be part of this important conversation. We appreciate your commitment to elevating student voices and recognizing the impact of OST programs across New Mexico!
