Summer Learning 2025
At One School of Arts & Sciences, we know adventure happens outside our comfort zones; discovery takes place inside of adventure, and learning happens inside of discovery. Scholars in grades PreK – 12th independently learn amazing things through summer learning that encourages them to read, calculate, build, and share.
Summer Learning BASH
We celebrate our scholars who complete Summer Learning with our epic annual Summer Learning Bash at the start of school. If scholars complete the following steps by the first day of school, and submit the Summer Learning Project form by Friday, August 15th, we will have an instant record of who gets to join in on this awesome day!
Scholars who have completed their Summer Learning Projects can look forward to a celebration with Kona Ice and a special activity.
The celebration changes each year so do not miss out on the surprise!
