San Diego Unified launches summer academic, enrichment programs

San Diego Unified, the second largest school district in California, launched a summer recovery program Monday, and about 30,000 students are either taking in-person morning academic classes or are enrolled in enrichment programs, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

The district’s Level Up Recovery Program, which was launched after the district received millions of relief dollars from the federal government, offers academic classes in the morning and enrichment activities in the afternoon, such as classes on how to fly a drone or how to be a barista, the newspaper reported.

About 25,000 students are taking the academic classes and another 10,000 are enrolled in enrichment programs, according to the Union-Tribune. Some of those students are enrolled in both sessions.
