Category: Children and Youth (Best in Category)

Year: 2023

Chesterfield County Public Schools (CCPS) runs a robust summer school program. It offers remediation to all identified students, Pre-K - 12. Additionally, CCPS provides a menu of enrichment camps and classes for acceleration, with both in person and virtual options. One of those programs is its Extended Day Camp. It is an elementary, Pre-K - 5, STEAM enrichment opportunity provided free of charge to all CCPS Title I students. The program is designed to expose remedial students to activities in science, technology, language arts, the arts, and math. Its purpose is to not only provide an opportunity for growth in these areas but to also excite students about their learning and help broaden their knowledge base.
