Summer Resources for Oakland Youth

Published

on

The Oakland Unified School District  (OUSD) has set up the Summer Learning 2017 website for information on programs in Oakland and the Bay Area.

There are many free and low-cost options for all interests and academic needs from the time school gets out in June until the first day of school on August 21st, 2017.

Visit oakland.inplay.org to search a citywide list of programs including those offered through OUSD. Over summer break, Oakland Unified serves 5,700 students across 40 sites in partnership with over 20 community-based organizations.

District-sponsored programs combine academic intervention in math and English with engaging enrichment activities such as art, dance, sports, science and outdoor adventure for a full day of extended learning.

Some summer program highlights:

  • OUSD is partnering with the nonprofit InPlay.org to provide a comprehensive resource on the hundreds of summer programs available, many at low or no cost. In addition to Summer Learning with OUSD, summer camps are offered by the City of Oakland Parks and Recreation, as well as activities at museums, libraries and scholarship opportunities. Learn about the wide range of programs at ousd.org/summerlearning. “We want to ensure that students are ready to start at grade level in the fall,” said Interim Superintendent Devin Dillon. “Summer learning programs are critical for our students because rather than falling behind over break as can happen so easily, they can build on their accomplishments and strengthen their studies.”
  • Summer Pre-K (SPK): A half-day summer camp that prepares children for kindergarten with the social learning, literacy and math development skills necessary for success in school. Made possible by First Five of Alameda County and Oakland Fund for Children and Youth, SPK offers weekly parent workshops with resources for academic readiness and child wellness

Springboard Collaborative: An intensive, five-week summer literacy program for over 800 Pre-K through 3rd grade students and their families. Includes home visits before the program begins, weekly family workshops and high impact small group reading instruction with students grouped by reading level.

ECCO (Exploring College and Career Options): Rising high school seniors can experience the world of work in this internship program while building a network in their field of interest.

OUSD has doubled the number of paid student internships to 300 for Summer 2017, and students also earn 10 units of elective credit once they end the summer by presenting their skills and accomplishments.
