Stay Active and Stay Sharp All Summer!

May 16, 2022

By admin

AT STRIVE-Prep we encourage students to engage in both academics and physical activities over the summer. Being outside, being active, and enjoying the fresh air in the summer months is critically important. Also important is continuing to engage in academics. “Summer slide” is the tendency for students to lose some of the achievement gains they made during the previous school year.

The information below is provided to help connect parents, caregivers, and friends of STRIVE-Prep students with resources and programs to help them stay academically and physically active over the summer months.
