• DEADLINE EXTENSION: APPLICATION TO MS Arts Audition Boot Camp 2022

  Program Description: Middle School Arts Audition Boot Camp is a free, two-week arts program for New York City Department of Education public school students entering grade 8 in September 2022. This intensive program will return to an “in-person” camp this summer. The NYCDOE Office of Arts & Special Projects administers this program in collaboration with a group of leading cultural organizations: Lincoln Center, Weill Institute of Music at Carnegie Hall, Harlem School for the Arts, NY Philharmonic, Studio in a School, and Julliard. The goal of the program is to provide equity and access in preparation to screened NYCDOE arts high schools and arts programs for 300 currently Title I middle school students interested in auditioning for a screened high school arts program.

• Summer Rising 2022

  Grades K-8

  For K-8 programs, Summer Rising will be full-day, Monday through Friday, in-person, and planned and operated collaboratively by school principals and DYCD-funded CBO partners in DOE school buildings.

  K-8 students participating in programs will have access to academic classes, enrichment programming including field trips, arts activities, and outdoor recreation. The environment will be safe and supportive with staff prepared to respond to children’s social and emotional needs. Breakfast and lunch will be served.

  Key experiential improvements for grades K-8 Summer 2022 programming:

  • The K-8 enrollment process will be led by the DOE this summer. Enrollment will be open to any student currently in grades K-8 who wants to participate until the summer seat capacity in each building is reached. Students who are mandated to attend summer programming in June will be able to access a seat affiliated with their home campus. More information on enrollment for schools and families will be shared in April when enrollment launches.
  • A K-8 common digital curriculum will be provided to create engaging learning experiences for students, and professional development will be provided in the spring to prepare teachers to implement the curriculum.

  Please stay tuned for more information on enrollment and programming in April.

  Eligibility

  Students and families will have the opportunity to apply for a Summer Rising slot based on their current (school year 2021-2022) grade level. All New York City residents who are currently in grades K-8 are eligible for summer programs. New York City students who do not attend a DOE school will have the opportunity to apply as well. Some students with disabilities may require additional supports or accommodations to participate in a summer program, and these additional supports, such as a paraprofessional, will be provided as needed.https://infohub.nyced.org/nyc-doe-topics/summer-2022/grades-k-8
