BLAST

Your child has been specially invited and referred to this summer program based on one or more of the following: academic performance, attendance, mental health, English learner status, or recent homelessness.

To secure your child's spot, simply fill out this form no later than May 16, 2025.

BLAST kicks off on July 7 and runs through August 7, from 9:30am to 3:00pm, Monday through Thursday, at Northfield Middle School. Mornings will be packed with engaging academic sessions focusing on literacy and math, while afternoons will be bursting with themed clubs and enrichment activities. This year's theme is "Around the World".

Research has shown that participation in summer academic programs can maintain learning and prevent learning loss over the summer. That's why we encourage you to make a commitment to your child attending all 20 days of BLAST – it's a decision that could make a world of difference in their academic journey.

Bussing is available for all students this summer within district lines at select neighborhood stops (listed in the form) around Northfield and Dundas. Those within walking distance of the Middle School will need to walk or find alternate transportation. Route and stop times will be communicated late June/early July directly from Benjamin Bus. Any questions regarding bussing should be directed to Benjamin Bus at 507-645-5720.
