Waterford Unified School District is offering TWO summer school programs this summer. Priority enrollment will be given to low-income students, English Learners, Foster Youth, and Homeless.

The FIRST is a four week (20 day) Summer STEAM in Motion Academy. Transitional Kindergarten - 7th grade students experience a focus on fun and engaging learning through Science, Technology, English, Arts, and Math (STEAM). This program will be located at Lucille Whitehead Intermediate School from 8am-2:30pm.

Students TK-7th students may arrive as early as 7am to take part of Expanded Learning in the morning (morning bus transportation is only available for students arriving at 8am). Students TK-7th will also have the option to stay until 4pm to take advantage of enrichment activities during the Expanded Learning Program time. Breakfast and supper are offered during Expanded Learning Program time.

The SECOND is a six week (26 day) 9-11th grade program for students wanting to advance or remediate. Among the courses offered at WHS Summer Academy will be the following: the freshman core classes, including health for incoming 9th graders; College, Career and Financials for incoming 9th graders; physical education for 10-11th grade; and credit recovery for 10-12th grades. Students must be referred and enrolled by their guidance counselor for the 9-11th grade summer academy. The extra instruction that students receive during the summer program will help to fill gaps in learning, reinforce important skills, and better prepare them for the next school year.

Attendance on the first day is required to ensure your place in class. The size of this year's student enrollment in summer school is expected to be sizeable, therefore, space is limited and students who have enrolled in this program but do not attend the first day will be dropped and placed on a waiting list for available space. It is important that your child appear on the first day of summer school to ensure his or her placement.
