Summer School
Many children who need ongoing services to build further on their development attend RSD throughout the summer months, as part of the Extended School Year (ESY) Program. We continue to follow the RSD school curriculum and New York State Learning Standards while providing a comprehensive array of recreational and learning activities. To promote natural learning, we incorporate a variety of field trips, hands-on and interactive learning activities, and outdoor experiential activities. Children, who are part of the RSD Elementary and Middle School Programs and whose CSE has approved ESY participation, are eligible to attend.
