Additional Opportunities
Summer Opportunities: NSSED/NSSRA Summer Program
NSSED/NSSRA Summer Program is offered to students who qualify for
extended school year as identified in their IEP through NSSED. This
five week summer program includes education in the morning and an
afternoon recreation option. Afternoon recreation includes sensory
activities, fine and gross motor skill development, crafts, cooking, sports,
indoor and outdoor games, field trips, socialization among peers and
swimming! NSSED and NSSRA will place students at camp sites based on
appropriate educational groupings and facility availability. Registration
for Summer Program opens each year in late winter through NSSED.
Summer Program session dates and registration details are published
annually in NSSRA’s Spring Program Guide.
Winter Break Opportunities: Camp Igloo
Camp Igloo is the perfect mini-camp to fill the days while school is out.
Participants will spend their winter break hours at our day camp with
their friends and engage in a variety of activities. Recreation activities will
focus on independence, motor development and developing an overall
sense of well-being. Campers will enjoy sports, cooking, music, arts, crafts
and maybe some snow time if the weather permits! Registration opens
annually in July with the publication of NSSRA’s Fall Program Guide.
