The City of Providence and Providence Public School District work together to provide enriching summer learning programs for Providence students of all ages.
KidsBridge- Inspiring Minds’ KidsBridge Summer Learning Program is a Kindergarten readiness program for Providence five-year-olds who have not yet had high-quality early learning experiences. KidsBridge is free and runs from July 7- August 15, Monday through Friday, 8:30-2:30. Students learn school routines and expectations as well as early literacy, math, science, and art in a fun, play-based, high-quality early learning environment. Since Kindergarten transition is a family experience, parents and other family members participate in ongoing parent engagement events, workshops, and celebrations! KidsBridge registrations can be completed on our website at https://inspiringmindsri.org/our-programs/kidsbridge/
