All students experience learning losses when they do not participate in educational activities during the summer. Most lose about two months of grade level equivalency in math skills over the summer months and students who don't have access to educational resources lose more than two months in reading achievement, despite the fact that their middle-class peers move ahead.
 
To prevent this summer setback, parents must start in September the process of getting their child into a high quality summer program. This free forum will give parents the tools and information to support their child's academic development all year long. 

 

All attendees must pre-register online! No on site registrations will be allowed. Click link below to register.
