regular school year. Math and ELA were taught every day, Social
Studies and Science were taught every other day. The curriculum was
written in large part by our own teachers. Time was included at the end
of the day for organizational skills, homework, extra help for IEP
students, and character education. Breakfast and lunch were served
each day. The Elementary K-5 summer school program ran from 8-1
