What are summer programs?

Summer programs are organized educational or recreational activities that take place during the summer months, typically when regular school is not in session. These programs can focus on academics, arts, sports, leadership, or other areas of interest, and are designed for children, teenagers, or even college students.

Many summer programs are offered by schools, community organizations, universities, or private companies.
