Program Sites and Participating Districts

Summer Institute Sites  PFL students attend three, five-week residential summer institutes for three consecutive summers, beginning at the end of fifth grade and continuing through the end of seventh grade.  Students are assigned to campuses by year of entry rather than by school district.  Daily tours are available and strongly encouraged at all sites.  Please  contact us to schedule a visit.

STEP Sites  During the academic year, PFL offers the Saturday Tutoring and Enrichment Program (STEP), a locally based, twenty-four weekend program during the sixth, seventh and eighth grade school years.   STEP consists of enrichment extended from the summer institutes, tutoring support for in-school subjects, community service projects, and field trips and other special events.
