Los Gatos-Saratoga Recreation Programs

Get ready for a summer of fun while learning and playing at a new summer program in the Bay Area! Different from traditional summer school, Los Gatos-Saratoga (LGS) Recreation’s Summer Fun Academy is open to all students in first through eighth grade and provides the opportunity to strengthen academics and play outside through a wide range of challenging, engaging, and fun programs.

This is a multi-week program with instructional tracks similar to periods within a traditional school day. A cohort of 14 students will rotate together through a track consisting of 4 periods everyday, each period lasting 45 minutes. The goal of the program is to mix both enrichment and athletic programs into each track to provide students a wide variety of activities to participate in during the summer months.
