Summer Learning

North Kansas City Schools' comprehensive summer learning offerings provide a variety of opportunities for students at all grade levels. Programs are available to all district students at no cost. Some schools may host summer learning at combined sites due to planned construction or space limitations.

Students receiving special education services and our English Language Learners students will receive specific information from their schools.

See the Frequently Asked Questions for more details about all programs.

  • Parents and guardians may enroll students for summer programming beginning in March. Exact dates will be posted soon.
  • Summer school takes an "everybody rises" approach. For example, if your child completes 1st grade this spring, they will be considered a 2nd-grade student for summer school.
  • It is important to note that if your child completes 5th grade, 6th grade, or 8th grade this spring, they will transition to the next grade level and their new building for summer programming.

During this time, parents who are enrolling kindergartners for the fall may also start the process of enrolling their child in K2K, our district's specialized two-week summer learning program for kindergarten students. Be on the lookout for information from your child's elementary school regarding Kindergarten Round-up dates and an opportunity to attend K2K (summer school for kindergartners).
