The Community Education Program is a fee-based program located in many different Jefferson County Elementary Schools. We are comprised of before and after-school programs, as well as Holiday and Summer Programs. Community Education services are designed to be fun and educational. The program is intended to be a high-quality enrichment experience, providing growth and development opportunities in the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual areas. We are pleased to accept students in kindergarten through 5th grade, ages 5-12, who are zoned and registered for Jefferson County Schools. Students will be accepted into the program at the school in which they are enrolled.

SOAR vs. Community Education Summer Camp
-
What is the difference between SOAR and Community Education Summer Camp? Click to find out!
SOAR (Strengthening Our Academic Reasoning) is an academic program offered by select schools in Jefferson County. It is from June 5 to June 29 and operates from 7:30 am – 1:30 pm. Enrollment in this program is through your child’s school. More details on the SOAR program must come from your child’s school.
Community Education Summer Camp is a tuition-based summer program offered by the Community Education department. We have programs in many different Jefferson County elementary schools during the school year. We offer before-school care (select schools only), after-school care, summer programs, and holiday day camps on most days schools are closed.
Can you participate in both? Yes!
If your child is enrolled in SOAR, you can enroll in our June program from 1:30 pm – 6:00 pm, Monday through Thursday, and all day on Friday. On June 30, 2023, you can transition your child to our traditional summer program. We are trying to open as many programs (locations) as possible. We base this on the number of students enrolling and the number of staff available.
If your child is not enrolled in SOAR, enroll in our traditional program. Our program starts May 30, 2023, and ends August 4, 2023. Our traditional program is open from 6:30 am – 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday.
Please make sure you are enrolling in the correct program. We have to make sure we have our attendance correct. We are using this information to determine which summer programs have enough students enrolled to open.
Register Now! Space is limited! Registration fees paid will guarantee a spot.
If you have questions or would like to enroll your child, please call 205-379-5670.
