Summer Scope is one of our many summer programs we are offering! This year both of our programs reached capacity & are offered at both Wilcox Elementary and Sandburg Elementary.
Students are exposed to unique and fun experiences around Central Illinois . Since Project Scope started on June 6th, students have already enjoyed jumping at Skyzone, a trip to Overlook Adventure Park in Decatur, and even a performance by Chris Camp, The Whip Guy.
We enjoy providing summer programming & opportunities for our students and we appreciate all of our community partners and community relationships!
