[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for this. So is it only for 2 weeks a summer normally or was that just due to covid last year?[/quote]

It was supposed to be 3 weeks last summer at Banneker but the middle week was canceled b/c of COVID. In previous years, it's been 5 weeks, but for whatever reason, they shortened it last year. I'm not sure whether it'll be 3 weeks or 5 weeks, or something else altogether, going forward.

Walls has a one-week session.

Banneker also assigns far more summer homework (reading, math, etc) than Walls for incoming 9th graders.[/quote]

Thanks again for this. So is this summer session all set? I looked at their website but can’t tell anything really. As in do families know well ahead of time what is expected and when so that they can plan their summers? If not I would assume the in person portion isn’t mandatory? I realize I need to call the school to try and better understand it before we decide if we will apply. Neither myself or DD wants to spend the summers tied to a school schedule. [/quote]
