The Prospect Summer Activities Program located at Long River Middle School is designed to give kids fun and enrichment activities during the summer. A pizza and ice cream party will be held at the end of each session, parents and guardians are welcome to attend. Special activities are planned for each session and for the safety of our children there will be an EMT or an MRT on the premises at all times.

Children may pick from a variety of classes and will attend those classes each day. Snack will be provided and will be given around 10:30 AM. There will be five classes daily for a two week period. Children are placed in groups according to their entering grade. Children must be entering grades Kindergarten through 8th grade in the upcoming September school year.

Students will pick their top five choices: We are still offering Around the World in 10 days, Drawing and Painting, Arts and Crafts and three big favorites: Kids in the Kitchen, Outdoor Activities and Activities with Science.
