Get ready for a summer of adventure in learning! Summer Rising begins for all participants on July 2, and runs Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Programming ends on August 15 for students in grades K-5 or August 8 for students in grades 6-8. Summer Rising will be closed on Friday, July 4, 2025, for Independence Day.
If you accepted your Summer Rising offer by May 8, you will receive more information leading up to the first day of the program. Stay up to date on all program details at Summer Rising.
Each May and June, teachers assess students’ progress to determine if they are ready for the next grade level. Families of students who have not yet made sufficient progress will be notified via letter in mid-June.
If your student is in grade 3-8 and is not promoted in June, they will be required to attend summer school. If your student did not receive a Summer Rising seat, then they will attend the academic portion only. Detailed instructions on dates and times will be in the letter. At the end of summer school, schools will make a final decision about students’ grade levels for next year.
When school is out, students can still enjoy free breakfast and lunch! From June 27 through August 29, the NYCPS Free Summer Meals program offers free meals across New York City to anyone 18 years old or younger. Meals are available at select NYC public schools, community pool centers, parks, and libraries. You don’t need to sign up in advance or provide identification—just head to a Summer Meals site and enjoy a meal. Dates, locations, times, and menus are subject to change; visit Summer Meals for the latest information.
