Summer Learning Plan
For a large number of students, the academic year does not provide enough time to fully grasp the concepts that were being taught in Math, English, Science, or Social Studies. And for some students who performed well academically, next year brings new academic challenges they want to get a leg up on - perhaps getting into Pace or double Pace. Studies have shown that even Gifted Students need some form of academic stimulation and/or reinforcement during the summer months to avoid the dreaded "Brain Drain" that otherwise occurs. 4Points Academy provides a Summer Learning Plan (SLP) that includes a combination of individual tutoring (led by certified instructors and subject matter experts), group tutoring/classes, and academic camps. This provides the individual child with exposure to specific academic concepts in an engaging and fun environment that fosters academic growth and learning throughout the summer. Children who participate in this program will receive a personalized SLP that addresses the specific needs identified by the results of the student's pre-plan assessment(s) and the parent.
To learn more about having your child receive an SLP and participate in this academically-enriching program, schedule a consultation today by
