Verona Area School District

Welcome!

I am very excited to welcome you to our 2023 Elementary Summer School Program.  We are working hard to develop programming that will give your child an opportunity to grow in both their academic and social emotional development.  Every day children will have the opportunity to have breakfast, every class will have a morning meeting to build their class community, a mid-morning recess to promote physical activity, and engage in fun activities to grow their academic and social skills.  

Sugar Creek will be the location for Elementary Summer School programming. Classes will range in size from 18 to 30 students, depending upon the number of instructors for each course.  Interested teachers have proposed courses that incorporate literacy, language, math, problem solving, social emotional, and technology experiences in their offerings.  These summer opportunities may also include time for drama, arts, hands-on investigations and experiential learning. All courses will be offered by certified teachers at no cost to students.

Thank you for your interest in our programs, I look forward to working with your children and family throughout the summer!  Please reach out with any questions or concerns.
