About Breakthrough Summerbridge

Breakthrough Summerbridge involves a full-time summer academic enrichment session and a school-year academic program.

Students attend the six-week summer session over three consecutive summers and spend two years with Summerbridge during the school year.

During the summer, students take classes in math, humanities, and science, grade level co-curricular classes, and numerous non-academic electives (including the arts and athletics).

The school-year academic program features academic enrichment courses, high school counseling, and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) workshops for parents.
