MGM LEAPS Summer Program

This summer, the Montgomery Parks & Recreation Department is proud to partner with MGM LEAPS to provide a 6 week, full-day, no cost summer program for rising Kindergarten through 5th grade students. The program will begin on June 14th and conclude on July 23rd, and will be closed the dates of July 2nd and July 5th for the July 4th holiday. The program will include academic enrichment opportunities for students through the MGM LEAPS program offered in the morning and physical fitness activities programmed by the Montgomery Parks & Recreation Department offered in the afternoon. Enrollment is on a first-come, first-serve basis.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted Montgomery students in significant ways, increasing existing inequities and disrupting learning. Our students need us now more than ever. The MGM LEAPS (Learning and Enrichment Acceleration Program for our Students) program is designed to support local students in their academic and social and emotional recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. The MGM LEAPS program includes project-based learning centered around two theme-based units on Civil Rights History and the Arts, focusing on key foundational reading and math concepts aligned with Alabama standards.
