SUMMER CONNECTION
Connect your children — incoming kindergarteners and up — with creative, engaging activities and projects in a wide variety of disciplines with SUMMER CONNECTION, the Grosse Pointe Public School System’s summer enrichment program.
In this free program open to all GPPSS families, teachers have custom designed courses that emphasize enrichment, inquiry and fun. The focus is recharging and engaging students while reinforcing essential skills for a successful return to school in the fall.
The program runs from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in four two-week sessions:
Connection Kickoff: June 22- July 1
Connection Enrichment 1: July 6-15
Connection Enrichment 2: July 20-29
Connection Enrichment 3: August 3-12
The Kickoff will be outdoor / kinesthetic themed, featuring workshops where K-12 students will be outdoors and learning a new skill or refining an existing one. Offerings will be a mixture of sports lessons and outdoor (non-athletic) experiences.
The Enrichment program will continue a summer camp feel with academic learning through interactive and hands-on projects. Each session will contain unique content. Elementary students will receive project-based enrichment in core content areas as well as a special each day, with the program running from 8:30-11:30 each day.
At the secondary level, students will have the opportunity to participate in one or two classes per day for each of the two-week sessions. Classes run from 8:30 to 9:55 a.m. and 10:05 to 11:30 a.m. GPPSS will offer a wide variety of highly engaging courses that break the traditional mold of school.
Program locations along with details on transportation will be announced after spring break, with class descriptions posted online in mid to late April.
