summer school

Another side effect of COVID-19, the School District of Philadelphia will see an uptick in students enrolling in summer school this year. Nearly 15,000 students have already signed up to make up for lost learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is an increase from the 9,300 students that signed up last year.

As the second school year disrupted by the pandemic winds down, summer school plans are taking shape around the country

Los Angeles Unified School District high schools are planning to host their own “safe, socially distanced” outdoor graduation ceremonies, offer summer school to all students, and deploy mobile coronavirus vaccination teams to get as many shots into students’ arms as possible.
