Enrichment
Curriculum enrichment is easily one of the most memorable and important contributions that our PTO makes to the Summer Street School and its students. The Enrichment Comittee works closely with the SSS Faculty to deliver more than a dozen programs that integrate with and help reinforce the students' learning.
