*Important Note: Four of these summer programs are being offered at the same time as Extended School Year (ESY), which is an eligibility-based program for students receiving special education services. ESY eligibility is determined by the end of March, and there is no cost for participation. If a student qualifies for ESY and is also registered for one of these camps, it is the Parent/Caregiver’s decision whether to have their child participate in ESY or these summer programs.
