We are prioritizing our largest summer programs; high school credit recovery and Extended School Year (ESY) for students with IEPs. These programs will begin in early July and will all be offered in in-person learning formats. We are working with district, schools, Community Based Organizations, colleges and After School/Summer providers to develop summer programs and opportunities for students to ensure a diverse and comprehensive array of offerings. All programs will be closed on Friday, July 1 and July 4 to observe the Fourth of July holiday.

While the research is clear that summer learning programs can benefit students, not all summer learning programs studied have resulted in positive outcomes for enrollees (Kim, 2004; Borman, Goetz, and Dowling, 2009; and Kim and Guryan, 2010). Research studies and best-practice literature show that effective programs providing high-quality academic opportunities share a number of features:
structured instruction in reading, writing, and mathematics. Instruction should be consistent with state and local content standards and match students’ academic needs.
adequate intensity and duration of instruction. Experts recommend that academic instruction last at least three hours a day, five days a week, for five to six weeks.
certified teachers providing academic instruction. Academic instructors should hold the appropriate certification and be selected because of their interest in and appropriateness for summer instruction of low-achieving students.
lower student-to-adult ratios than those in the regular school year. Lower ratios permit more attention to the needs of individual students.
enrichment activities to supplement academic content. Enrichment activities often involve music, art, sports, and community service and may entail reading and writing where academic content is integrated into enrichment activities.
consistent daily attendance. In order for students to benefit from the summer
program, they must regularly attend.
