ALF Summer School for Grades 1-6 at Palm Crest Elementary
Palm Crest Elementary (PCR), 5025 Palm Drive, La Cañada Flintridge, CA 91011
For over 40 years, Assistance League of Flintridge has held ALF Summer School at one of the elementary schools in the La Cañada Unified School District. This year, we are pleased to be located at Palm Crest Elementary School. ALF Summer School is administered by Assistance League of Flintridge members who are volunteers. Many of the teachers, aides and principals come from the district and nearby areas. Many also return year after year to be part of the program. During the summer, students are encouraged to participate “for the joy of learning” and there is no homework.
ALF Summer School will be held for four weeks from June 19 through July 14, 2023. No school July 3rd or 4th. Classes are Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM – 12:00 PM. Students can choose up to three subjects that are of the most interest to them and will move between classes and outdoors during their morning routines. Classes are designed to be engaging and fun while reinforcing concepts learned during the school year.
ALF Summer School classes will be located in the upper campus of Palm Crest Elementary, an area completely separate from the construction planned for this site. The Palm Drive entrance will not be available and all access will be on Jessen Drive. Further details will be included in the Welcome Packet.
For those students who will need childcare after ALF Summer School, the Child Educational Center will be on-site at Palm Crest Elementary to provide activities for those who sign up. Visit the CEC website for more information and holiday closures.

Parent Communications

Be sure to indicate the best email address for your family during registration and check your spam filter for emails from Activenetwork, active.com, summerschool@alflintridge.org and/or programs@alflintridge.org.
