Program Overview

Transitioning Into the School Year

For children entering kindergarten or first grade, Summer Bridge offers opportunities to strengthen foundational skills, build peer connections, and practice classroom routines that support a confident transition into the school year.

Program Readiness

Summer Bridge welcomes children with a range of learning experiences, abilities, and developmental needs, including neurodivergent learners.


Children should be ready to participate in a small-group, drop-off setting with gentle guidance and follow basic safety directions.


WholeSchool provides individualized guidance within the small-group setting, but is not designed to provide continuous one-on-one support.
