Variety established the Extended School Year (ESY) Program to assist students, ages 5-21, with developmental disabilities to maintain and improve skills acquired during the school year throughout the summer months.
Program Components
Our ESY Program is an alternative to School District programs that may not “fit” your child’s needs for structure and consistency.
This program is offered Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 3 PM and runs for 7 weeks. Transportation is usually provided by the School District but Before and After Care is offered for additional fees, if needed.
All new students must submit a current IEP at time of application. Approval is made following review of application, a student interview, funding approval by the School District, and a $100 non-refundable deposit.
7-week program (5 – 16 y/o) Fee includes IEP goals, and daily group socialization/skills activities.
Intensive Supports 7-week program (16-21 y/o) program fee (includes a 1:1). Individual sessions in Speech/ Language, Occupational, and Physical Therapy are available.
