About
Aim High Summer includes daily classes and activities such as STEM Class, Humanities Class, Issues & Choices Class, Advisory, Activities/Enrichment, art, sports, board games, movie making, cooking, energizer games, and Morning and Closing Circle Assemblies. The program is described as a no-cost summer program for current 5th–8th grade middle school students who have limited access to summer academic enrichment programs.
• Ages: 10–14 years old
• Schedule: Sample daily schedule runs from a 9:00am Morning Circle Assembly to a 3:15pm dismissal, with early drop off available starting at 8:00am and extended care available until 5:00pm at specified campuses; student sessions in Summer 2026 run from June 15–July 17 or June 22–July 24 or June 29–July 31, depending on campus
• Price: Our no-cost summer program
Aim High Summer is committed to a multi-summer learning experience for students beginning in 5th grade through 8th grade, and students are expected to attend consecutive summers throughout middle school. The program’s mission states that it ignites a love of learning and prepares students for success in middle school, high school, and beyond, and it is guided by CORE values of Community, Opportunity, Respect, and High Expectations. The program has implemented restorative practices to prevent as well as respond to conflict, harm, and wrongdoing, and behavior expectations and interventions are rooted in these practices. The Issues & Choices class provides age-appropriate lessons and activities to explore identity, develop social emotional skills, and create plans for the future. The STEM class encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity through designing and building projects that solve real-world problems, and the Humanities class encourages students to read, write, think about, and discuss contemporary issues to further develop communication and literacy skills. One parent described Aim High as a lifeline as a working parent, noting that communication has been easy, program offerings have been great, the child enjoys instructors, and the child experienced middle school-style transitions between classes, different enrichment options, new sports, and mentorship.
