WHY
 Summer break
can become a long and lonely stretch without schoolmates and engaged learning
opportunities. We would like to provide periodic clusters of fun, friendship,
and fascination for the children of the community. We hope children have the
opportunity to stay connected to each other throughout break and make new
acquaintances. We believe learning never takes a break and the summer climate
provides a setting we miss during the traditional year.

 Children

- Children enrolled in other districts are

- Children residing outside of Arvon Township
