Virtual Academic Summer Learning 2026
Detailed Information on 2026 Virtual Academic Summer Learning
Academic Summer Learning - TJ Students Only
Where
Summer Learning will be held virtually
Why Virtually
- Innovation: A virtual summer learning model and the types of activities, including virtual lab experiences, are reflective of contemporary educational and STEM industry environments.
- Sustainability: Revenues generated during summer programs struggle to keep pace with operating and personnel costs; therefore, we remain committed to supporting fundamental STEM courses and are unable to expand offerings at this time.
- Accessibility: TJ serves nearly 1,300 square miles of Northern Virginia, and the TJ transportation models used by all sending jurisdictions during the regular academic year are not possible during summer months, resulting in commuting barriers for families. Therefore, a virtual model creates equitable access.
