Netter Center provides summer academic and cultural enrichment

Hundreds of elementary, middle, and high school students in the city are supported each summer by academic and enrichment programming offered by the Netter Center for Community Partnerships at University-Assisted Community Schools.

For six weeks, from the middle of June through early August, this summer’s program served around 400 K-8 students at Lea, Comegys, Mitchell, and Hamilton schools in West and Southwest Philadelphia, and close to 200 high school students primarily from Sayre, West Philadelphia, Robeson, and Mastery-Shoemaker Charter School.
