Summer Programs in City Schools
Systemic and non-systemic summer programs are important aspects to how City Schools supports student achievement.
Systemic summer programs are organized and coordinated through Central Office.
Non-systemic summer programs are school-based, and individual schools organize them.

Staffing Summer Programs
In order to budget for and staff a summer program in City Schools, coordinators need to: Create positions and allocate money to each
position. Staff each position by hiring and identifying
employees.
The start and end dates are based on when employees start to complete work for the program and when employees end their work for the program. You are NOT creating start and end dates based on
student participation.

Creating Summer Programs
Creating programs and positions in the PStAR system allows you to “buy” the positions to staff your program. You are creating these positions and allocating
funds so that the people working will be paid appropriately.
Summer programs that span fiscal years (FY) will use funds from two different fiscal year (FY) budgets. June 30th is the end of the fiscal year (FY).

Summer Programs that Span Two Fiscal Years
As long as an employee is working for a summer program before June 30th and after July 1st, you need two programs and two sets of positions in PStAR. One program and set of positions for FY 2014. One program and set of positions for FY 2015.
In PStAR, include the FY in the program names to differentiate them. “Reading Adventures FY2014” and “Reading
Adventures FY2015”. The FY 2014 program will end June 30th. The FY 2015 program will begin July 1st.
