More about the applications
- Selection via lottery. Students should have at least 90% attendance during the school year and not be required to attend summer school. It is expected that applicants commit to attending the full five weeks.
- Parents will be notified of acceptance via email during the week of May 21 and be asked to accept the seat and to provide additional information. If a child is accepted and is then required to attend summer school, they will not be able to attend the program. Parents will be notified by their child’s school if they are required to attend summer school, and STEM administrators will also notify you in early June if we need to retract the seat. Any seat not accepted will go to the next student on the wait list. Parents will be provided with a wait list number if they are not initially accepted in the lottery process.
- Online application support is available via parent coordinators. More information via the school search.
There are a number of enrichment programs for children this summer. Learn about by visiting Summer Academy programs.
