Enrollment for VISD’s 2023 Summer Academic and Enrichment Camps opens Monday, March 20 at 7 a.m. The campuses chosen to host summer camps are Rowland, Schorlemmer, and Torres Elementary.
As part of the Texas Education Agency’s (TEA) Additional Days School Year (ADSY) initiative, VISD’s Office of Strategic Planning and School Improvement is offering its “LEVEL UP” academic and enrichment camp.
Camp will be offered Monday thru Friday, from June 1-30, with breakfast offered at 8 a.m. and instruction from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Students will receive three hours of reading and math instruction and three hours of enrichment instruction with a pathway focus aimed at exposing students to possible &’s they’ll want to pursue as they grow through VISD.
There will be nine different enrichments this year including Movement Lab, STEAM, photography, board games, art, and reading and math instruction to strengthen skills.
“The enrichment section has opportunities for children to explore passions they may not have had access to otherwise," said a 1st-grade VISD parent.
The summer camps are at no cost to parents and are available to all current VISD prekindergarten thru fifth-grade students. Transportation will be provided for those who qualify.
To enroll your student, visit www.visd.net/summercamp, and follow the directions on the page. Seats are limited, so acceptance into the summer camps will be determined on a first-come, first-serve basis. Only current VISD elementary students are eligible.
“My children came home every day with the best stories,” said a pre-K and kindergarten VISD parent. “They had fun and learned more every day!”
