Extended Learning Adventures

• Space is limited. If submitting more than one registration, it may be necessary to limit one opportunity per child based on availability. 
• MPS students receive priority registration. Non-MPS students will be notified via email if spots become available only if all necessary forms are completed. Priority registration is also given to students who have never participated in an extended learning adventure through ELO. 
• When completing forms, make sure to select the grade based on the criteria listed.
• Families will receive an email communication confirming enrollment status. Email addresses should be current and accurate on registration forms.
• Registration will close when no more spots are available OR one week prior to the start date.
• If it becomes necessary to cancel your child's registration, please contact elo@milwaukeepublicschools.org or (414) 475-8238. Non-attendance may affect future participation.

Spaces are limited for these adventures, and scholarships are available. Grade levels are based on the student’s grade in the 2026–27 school year. Participating students will need a bag lunch for these adventures. Families are responsible for transportation.
