Smart reasons to keep kids learning over the summer

Good morning,

Did you know that "on average, kids lose 2.6 months of math skills over Summer Break — some lose even more. Young learners lose, on average, a month or more of spelling skills, the second highest loss in any area." And if you think that students will successfully be able to catch up once they are older and more focused, research has proven otherwise. "Unequal summer learning opportunities during elementary school accounts for two-thirds of the ninth grade achievement gap. This can make a significant impact on the universities to which your kids are accepted." (To read the full article click here.)

So what is the message? Keep your kids learning over this summer! If you don't have time or know where to begin to help your child, you can contact us today. We have a variety of summer classes available in several areas of study. These classes usually fill quickly, so don't wait!
