/ Children's After School Achievement (CASA)

Summer

CASA's summer program works to fill the educational gap that can occur when school is not in session while also continuing educational growth for struggling students. The summer program is six weeks long, begining in June and ending in July. Students attend four morning sessions per week lasting four hours each. Each day students will be dismissed by 12:45 p.m.

Other key aspects of this program include: 

  • Free transportation – Offered each session from the home to the program site and back.
  • Free meals – Both breakfast and lunch are included.
  • Individualized attention – Classes are kept small with a certified teacher and classroom assistant in each.
  • Consistency – Sessions are held four mornings per week, four hours each, for six weeks from June through July.
  • Curriculum – Teachers focus on remedial and basic academics.
  • Personal enrichment – Classes also go on outings to the art museum, theater and nature centers that our students may not get to experience otherwise. Each class also participates in a service project in the community.
