We (currently) offer quite a few enrichment and academic classes that parents would have to choose just one for their child to participate in. By having two four-week sessions, we shorten the sessions just a little bit, we offer a lot more opportunity. We offer kids (the opportunity) to take two of those classes and really be involved in school more during the summer.
