This document discusses the use of articles with time phrases and institutions. In general, time phrases like "in summer" and "on Monday" do not use articles, but articles are used if there is an adjective before the noun or a phrase after it, such as "a fantastic summer" or "the Monday I had off." For institutions, articles are usually omitted when referring to their general purpose, but are used with adjectives like "a new school."

With phrases of time we normally use a singular noun with no article.
in summer
on Monday
But we do use an article if there is an adjective before the noun or a phrase or
clause after it. I had a fantastic summer.
I went there on the Monday I had off.
Articles and institutions, etc
We use some nouns without an article when we are talking about their normal purpose or use (especially institutions) rather than talking about one specific building. But we do use an article if there is an adjective modifying the noun, e.g. Im starting in a new school tomorrow.
