Summer Learning Camp

Hello Summer Learning Camp 2024 Families! 

We are so excited to work with your child at the FSSD Summer Learning Camp (SLC), the FSSD’s free summer program designed to prepare students for success in the next grade level. Please note the following important information and camp procedures as we prepare to greet all of our SLC campers on Monday, June 3rd.

SLC will be held Mondays-Thursdays at Poplar Grove Elementary and Middle Schools, 1030 Excellence Way, from Monday, June 3rd until Thursday, June 27th from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. There will be no classes on Fridays. Breakfast and lunch will be provided each day free of charge. Students will have an hour of indoor/outdoor recess each day, so we encourage them to wear school-appropriate clothing and comfortable shoes. You may drop off your enrolled child/children at the front of the PGES entrance no earlier than 8:00 a.m. and pick them up at the same location promptly at 3:30 p.m. Rising kindergartners must be picked up at 12:00.

At the end of May, your child’s SLC teacher will contact you with some specific class information. Our SLC parent liaison will be available if you need an interpreter or translator for your questions.

For families who choose to use the free bus transportation to and from camp, please see the bus stops and times in the tab below. Choose the bus stop location closest to your home. Note that all times are approximate and your child should be waiting for the bus five to ten minutes before the scheduled stop. Your child may have a different bus, driver, stop location, and/or stop time than they did during the school year. Please call 615-790-4704 or email schoolbus@fssd.org if you have questions or concerns about bus transportation.

If you have questions, please email us or call the Summer Learning Camp phone number at 615-591-2803 (beginning June 3rd). We are excited to create fun experiences and treasured memories at the FSSD Summer Learning Camp while also preparing your child for a successful 2024-2025 school year!

If you would like to track your child’s bus using our mobile app, Edulog Parent Portal Lite, the school code is 67728969 and you select the bus you want to follow. 

Please note that a parent, older sibling, or another responsible adult must be at the bus stop in the afternoon to receive students in lower grades. If either the child or the bus driver is uncomfortable with the situation, the bus driver reserves the right to return the student to the SLC.
