For parents in Philadelphia looking for a summer solution to keep their kids engaged, the city is offering a unique opportunity through the Summer Achievers program at EDEY schools. According to an announcement on the official city website, this no-cost six-week camp runs from June 24 to August 1 and is open to all rising first through eighth graders.
The camp, which spans full days, promises not only mealtimes and quality care but also a roster of enriching activities and fun trips. Family interest is high and spots are expected to be snapped up soon, given the limited capacity across the 20 participating Extended Day, Extended Year (EDEY) District schools. The initiative is a collaborative funding effort under Mayor Parker's leadership, supported by both the City of Philadelphia and the School District of Philadelphia.
Registration for the camp is open on a first-come, first-served basis, and organizers are encouraging families to sign up without delay. With a quick and easy online process, securing a spot takes just minutes. All Philadelphia students are eligible to enroll.
