Power School and Super Power Summer Camp are collaborations between Gilroy Unified School District and Community Based Organization partners. Each agency brings unique areas of expertise to the high level of collaboration so that all participants benefit, regardless of which agency manages the site. We are very happy to have the Mt. Madonna YMCA, Youth Alliance, and Cal-SOAP as Power School and Super Power Summer Camp partners.

Every day beginning immediately after school until 6 pm, Power School offers a healthy snack, support with homework, an academic component to support school day learning, recreation time to encourage a healthy physically active lifestyle, and an enrichment program.

For six weeks during the summer, Super Power Summer Camp offers a six-hour program that provides breakfast and lunch, rallies, engaging rotations through STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math), Literacy and Healthy Living enrichment activities.

Students in grades 2-8 are recruited to participate in Power School and Super Power Summer Camp based on academic need. (Note: Kinder and 1st grade students may be enrolled as space becomes available).
