Attention Incoming 6th And 9th Graders!

We understand that transitions are a challenge. Navigating a larger environment, excelling with grades, multiple teachers, and juggling competing priorities can be quite challenging. The Summer Transition Program for incoming 6th and 9th graders is designed to help students gain familiarity with their new school and teachers.

The 5-week FREE summer program will take place at your student's new school, July 5 – August 5, from 8:30am - 3:30pm, Monday - Friday. This program is funded through the Carver Foundation of Norwalk and Norwalk Public Schools.

The program is limited to 70 students for middle school students at each of the four NPS middle schools and 100 students for each of the two NPS high schools on a first-come, first-served basis.

Students who are not attending summer school and have scored above the 25 percentile on the NWEA MAP testing are eligible to attend. This program is not intended to serve as a remedial program of any kind but is intended solely to help ensure a smooth transition from elementary school to middle school and middle to high school.

Students enrolling in the program will participate in project-based learning activities in English, Math, Science, Technology, and Study Skills. Students may take field trips to enhance team-building and the academic program.

FREE breakfast, lunch, and transportation (to those eligible to take a school bus during regular school days) will be provided each day.
