For NYC kids, this summer will be disappointing.

With the final day of school next Friday, the city has ended an outdoor program, recreation and employment for young people of all ages.

“Hundreds of thousands of NYC kids who have been locked up for three months may not be fun to do,” education consultant David Rubel said. “Children need to play outside if they are going back to school in September who are ready to learn.”

Thanks to Mayor de Blasio’s budget cuts and coronavirus restrictions, the popular Summer Youth Employment Program, which gave employment to nearly 75,000 adolescents and young adults by 2019, has been eliminated until now. Officials scattered to find funds.

The terrible news comes after students have been stuck at home since mid-March amid the closure of Covid-19, with laptops and iPads replacing private classes.

The Department of Youth and Community Development has abolished a series of programs that offer art, sports, games and field trips enjoyed by 100,000 young people last summer.

“The city is pulling a stop at programs that support the welfare of children and families when parents are called back to work when the city is reopened,” said Julie Stein Brockway, co-director of the Center for Family Life in Sunset Parks. The summer camp and neighborhood center serve 2,000 children per day and have experience in socially remote methods.

The DYCD said it would come up with “alternatives,” but it was all online – so children would remain glued to the computer screen.

The city’s Department of Education will run an online summer school and plan to expand the College Bridge program where CUNY students help high school graduates prepare for college.

The Parks and Recreation Department has removed basketball hoops and reams from city parks – more than 2,100 – without plans to replace them, officials told The Post.

Tennis courts and golf courses remain closed.

De Blasio cannot say whether or when the city pool, beach and recreation center, which was used by 20 million children and adults last summer, will be opened.

In very hot weather, the city will make spray sprays and mist in the park, said City Hall spokesman Jane Meyer. In environments that are far from parks or beaches, cities will open fire hydrants for the afternoon so that residents can cool off.

City-managed child care is still limited to the children of important workers.

The mayor conducts open playgrounds starting Monday. The decision came a few days after state Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein, state Senator Simcha Felder and Councilman Kalman Yeger opposed Hizzoner by having chains and keys sawed off the gates in the Kolbert Playground in Midwood.

But strict rules will apply: Masks must be worn on children over 2 unless it is medically difficult. “The long-distance social ambassador will distribute masks to those who need them,” Meyer said.

For older children, Little League and other team sports are not yet permitted.

“If we continue to make progress, when we enter Phase Two (reopening). then there will be a day when we are ready to act on team sports activities, “de Blasio said on Friday.

Governor Cuomo has prohibited the tent of sleep.

Campsite days are permitted, but funding for city-run camps is part of budget discussions between City Hall and City Council, Meyer said. It is unknown if anyone will open in July.

Councilor Queen Robert Holden urged the city to explore steps such as opening a school with an air-conditioned gym where children can play.

“They would rather children have problems than going somewhere. There are no plans to build this park quickly,” he said.

STILL SUMMER

Many teen programs will not run this summer or start late because of COVID-19 concerns and budget cuts:
