District 87 is using its free summer programming to help kids reset ahead of a return to in-person learning this fall.
Diane Wolf, assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction, said the goal is to get kids back into the social routines of going to school, as much as it is about preparing them academically.
“We are offering an elementary program that is a full-day program. It operates the same hours as a regular school day 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. It offers the school bus for transportation, breakfast and lunch, and has a combination of both academics and enrichment and exploring,” Wolf said.
