San Diego Unified’s Extended Learning Opportunities (ELO) department would like to share information about the district’s 2026 summer programs, available to all students currently enrolled in San Diego Unified. Programs include: Summer Morning Academic / Extended School Year (ESY), PrimeTime Summer PM, and PrimeTime Summer Academic Enrichment. Below are important key dates, program details and information. Families may view summer school site locations by clicking here: 2026 Summer Programming Information.
When planning this year’s summer programming, the district carefully considered several factors, including reduced funding, grant requirements, attendance data, and school site facility availability due to scheduled construction projects. In previous years, summer programs were offered for “UTK-8” students. However, due to low middle school participation in past Summer Academic / PrimeTime programs and fiscal challenges, we made a data-driven decision to focus programming for TK-6 students.
Summer 2026 Program Dates and Times:
Grades TK - 6th
The following summer programs are funded by the California Department of Education ELOP Grant and our district will offer universal access to San Diego Unified TK-6 students.
All TK-6 families will receive an email and text notification from a third-party provider with a link to register. This will be sent to the primary contact information on file with PowerSchool. The enrollment window opens on Monday, March 23rd, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. PST and closes on Friday, March 27th, 2026 at 4:59 p.m. PST.
