Summer Arts Enrichment Program
Our Summer Arts Enrichment Program gives students currently in grades 3-11 throughout the district the opportunity to participate in four weeks of creative educational activities. The following lessons will be offered during this summer’s program: art, dance, chorus, band and strings. Vocal lessons and band and strings ensembles will also be offered for middle and high school students.
Please note that while the program runs from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. Monday through Friday, your child may not be scheduled to attend every day. Students will be scheduled to attend during specific days and times based on the combinations of lessons selected.
This program is open to any City School District of Albany student currently in grades 3-11 who will be entering grades 4-12 next school year.
Students can sign up for as many of the lesson categories (art, dance, vocal music and/or instrumental music) as they would like, but please be aware of the following:
- Any student wishing to participate in instrumental lessons must already be playing that instrument, and arrange with their current music teacher to use the instrument during the summer
- Program schedules will be created based on interest and availability. Your child's specific schedule will be distributed prior to the start of the program
