Press Release ECS Summer Learning Camp

Posted On: Tuesday, April 13, 2021

Elizabethton City Schools are excited to offer two four-week summer learning programs during the month of June.  Our summer learning programs will be filled with exciting activities and high-impact learning!

The Summer Learning Camp is for rising first through fifth graders.  The primary focus will be on continuing to develop students’ foundational skills with a focus on math and reading.  During this program, students will also have the opportunity to learn through exploration and imagination during our STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, and Music) Mini-Camp daily activities! Physical activity will also be incorporated in our summer of fun-filled learning!

The Summer Bridge Camp for rising sixth, seventh, and eighth graders will provide opportunities for students to enhance their academic skills! The focus will be on Math and Language Arts to help students be more successful during middle school. Physical activity will also be incorporated to keep students active throughout the day!

The Summer Learning Program and Summer Bridge Camp are designed to provide additional in-person instruction in a year impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Priority will be given to students who have identified learning gaps.

Both camps will run June 1-4 (Tuesday-Friday) June 7-10 (Monday-Thursday), June 14-17 (Monday-Thursday), and June 21-24 (Monday-Thursday).  The Summer Learning Camp for elementary students will begin at 8:00 a.m. and will conclude at 3:00 p.m. daily. The Summer Bridge Camp for middle school students will begin at 8:30 a.m. and will conclude at 2:30 p.m. daily.  Breakfast and lunch will be provided.  ESP will also be available for a minimal fee until 6:00 pm each evening for those interested.  Transportation will be available for city residents only.  The buses will follow the existing routes that are posted on the Elizabethton City Schools website.
