We're keeping busy here at DeSoto summer learning program! Our students are having a blasts with the various activities we offer in our summer learning program, one students says her favorite parts of summer learning are "Learning, eating lunch, going outside and camp invention!" Part of our program, camp invention, helps students by, as one of our teachers describes, "Utilizing kids unique skills to practice engineering and science." One of these projects helped students explore these skills by using paper cups to build towers and work together as a team to make sure they were able to stand tall. We at DeSoto Parish strive to make a difference in the lives of our students with projects such as these and will continue to do so as we continue our summer learning program.
DeSoto Parish's Summer Learning is going swimmingly thanks to our amazing staff and volunteer's.
