We have been working hard to plan for REMOTE Summer Learning. Check here to find out if your child's school is hosting remote classes for their students. Schools will reach out to you with information on times and registration. Contact your school with any questions.
We also provide BPS 5th Quarter. These are run by BPS-approved partners. All eligible students are invited to attend, but any family can apply. Please note that space is limited. You can apply here:
