Chicago Summer of Learning

Learning happens everywhere in the city – in libraries, parks, museums, local programs, schools, and beyond. This summer, Mayor Emanuel is challenging the entire city of Chicago to come together to offer exciting and engaging opportunities for students – particularly in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. School stops for the summer, but learning never should.

With your help, we'll launch the largest citywide summer learning campaign in the nation.
