Here is information about RIDE’s SAIL program: “SAIL with PrepareRI (SAIL: Summer Academy for Interactive Learning) The Rhode Island Department of Education (RIDE), is offering distance learning opportunities for public school students enrolled in grades PreK – 12 from June 22, 2020 through August 28,2020.
