TAYLOR SUMMER ACADEMY: Avoid the 'summer slide'

The Taylor Summer Academy, a free summer program, is going to be held at Hoover Middle School, Mondays through Fridays, July 3-21.

Research has shown that children will lose ground when it comes to their academic progress over the summer. It is know as the "summer slide." One way to help combat this loss is through continued learning in the summer months.

The children in the Taylor School District have the opportunity to attend the Taylor Summer Academy. Your child will have fun learning new concepts and gaining new experiences.

The Taylor Summer Academy is open to students who are currently attending grades 1-7 and are enrolled in the Taylor School District.

There is no charge for this program. It is funded through Title I. Free transportation will be provided, from a limited number of bus stops.  Unfortunately, transportation will not be provided to students who are school of choice from outside the school district.

Students will also receive free breakfast and lunch on the days that they attend the program.

Registration is going on now through June 9. Classes fill up fast so get your application in early.

To enroll your child you must fill out an enrollment from and an emergency card.  You can get these forms from your child's school or download the forms here.
