It will be a busy summer for a rural DeWitt County school district.

Not only has summer school taken a front-and-center focus for area school leaders and Dr. Hilary Stanifer, Superintendent of Blue Ridge Schools, but also says their summer school programming begins just a week after school dismisses for the summer, May 28.

A program introduced last summer will continue this summer at Blue Ridge. According to Dr. Stanifer, they also have a kindergarten jump start program that returns this summer.

Finally, a couple of digital programs will be offered to K-8 students aimed at enjoyable but also instructional programming over the summer.
