Summer School 2026
We are excited to offer summer school again to students going into grades 1-8 for the 2025 Summer Session. The first step in this process is to seek qualified and interested candidates to apply for positions.
 
Why It Matters: Expanding summer school hours benefits students with increased academic and social enrichment, while providing families with safe and engaging programming for extended periods. The additional hours maximize Targeted Service funding, enhancing support for students and teachers through daily enrichment specialists, off-site learning opportunities, and one-time funds for comprehensive summer programming.

The Big Picture:

• The student and staff day will expand by two hours:
  • Student Hours 8:00-2:00 or 8:15-2:15 (pending location)
  • Staff Hours: 7:45-2:45 or 8:00-3:00 (pending location)
• We are now able to offer enrichment positions during the day.
  • Based upon numbers we will be looking for 2-3 enrichment teachers per site.
  • Hours would be similar to teacher and there would be one-time curriculum writing funds to support the establishment of enrichment in summer school.

Go Deeper: The Details:

• Dates: Monday-Thursday June 8^th-25^th and July 6^th-23^rd
• Time: 8:00-2:30 or 8:15-2:45
