Summer Programs

Dear FZSD Families,

We have many opportunities available for our students to learn and grow over the summer.  Below is a chart that shows the options that are available to your child based on the grade level they are in this school year.  All summer school registration (including STEAM camp) will be done through the parent portal in FOCUS this school year.  Starting tomorrow, Friday, February 27 you will see forms available in your parent portal for your children.  Please complete each of the forms in FOCUS in order to register your child for the programs you wish for them to attend.  If you have trouble with the forms or have questions regarding summer programming please reach out to your child's homeschool.
