Escambia Schools Plan Summer Programs

March 26, 2013

The Escambia County School District is planning a variety of summer school programs.

Programs will include a summer reading camp for third grade students who continue to exhibit substantial reading deficiencies, a preschool readiness program for children entering kindergarten who have not participated in a VPK program, an extended school year for students with disabilities, a high school driver’s education program, and a virtual program for remediation and course recovery for secondary students.

The budgeted programs are expected to cost $964,405, less than the $1.35 million spent last year due to the elimination of a second reading and math camp.

The third grade summer reading camps will be held at centralized locations: Beulah, Molino Park, Oakcrest, Holm, Pine Meadow and Blue Angels elementary schools. The preschool readiness program will be offered at Beulah, Pine Meadow, Holm and Blue Angels elementary schools.
