This year’s Autism Summer Enhancement Program will span three weeks, from July 9-26, with classes meeting from 8 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. daily to model students’ school schedules.

“That’s what makes this program so different and special - our teachers are certified and trained in the field of autism,” Davis said.
The program will enroll some 20 students, aged from 5-20. Classes will include arts, crafts, and academic and computer skills as well as field trips. Past programs have taken field trips to the Parks and Recreation splash pad and other local activities.
