Each summer, the District 214 Talent Development Program offers a broad selection of enrichment classes. These courses are only offered in person and are open to all District 214 students. Summer enrichment classes are designed to engage students in diverse and fun learning opportunities and to encourage students to explore new interests, to develop new passions and to explore different careers.

Summer enrichment classes are non-credit, so the learning environment is low-key and free of the pressure of homework and tests. Enrollment is, however, noted on student transcripts.

Most classes run for four days, or one Summer Experience week. Students may enroll in multiple classes for several unique experiences. 

The weeks of Summer Experience are:

Session 1: June 9-26

• Week 1: June 9-12
• Week 2: June 16-20*
• Week 3: June 21-24

*Due to Juneteenth falling on Thursday, June 19, summer courses will run Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday that week.

Session 2: July 7 – July 24
