Check with your school district
Many districts have a summer section of their website where information about district programming is explained. Here are just a few examples: Boston, Lowell, Somerville

Email your child’s teachers for ideas!
Your teachers know your child’s interests and strengths. They could have great ideas.

Check with your city’s recreation department
City recreation centers frequently offer low-cost summer programming.

Check with your healthcare provider
Pediatricians and other health care providers may have advice on activities you can do at home with your child or on appropriate camps for them. If you find a wonderful program for your child, don’t forget to let your child’s healthcare provider know so they can share the information with other families.
