Grades K through 8
Students in grades K-8 will have access to both academics and enrichment programming over the course of the day, including field trips, arts activities, and outdoor recreation. Programs will be full-day, in-person, and planned and operated collaboratively by school principals and community-based organizations. The environment will be safe and supportive with staff prepared to respond to children’s social and emotional needs. Breakfast and lunch will be served.
A typical day for students in grades K-8 will include a mix of academic support, social emotional learning, and enrichment activities. Academics will be provided by licensed teachers in the morning and enrichment will be led by community-based organization staff. Students with disabilities who may require additional supports to participate in programming , such as a paraprofessional, will receive those supports as needed.
Children in DOE 3-K and pre-K who have an IEP that recommends an extended school year (12-month) special class program will participate in a summer program at an Extended School Year (ESY) or District 75 site.

High school students participating in DOE programs will have a chance to make up previously failed courses and participate in academic enrichment, with academic and social emotional supports designed locally to meet the unique needs of older students. Students will also be able to engage in important career readiness opportunities, like the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP). For more information about SYEP, visit the Youth Employment page.
