“Summer school” is something that kids have dreaded for
ages. EdisonLearning has turned that around, by creating a summer
program that students actually enjoy. And while the
students enjoy the program, parents and teachers enjoy the
results!
An academically-oriented summer program is a learning experience
that really works: some kids need a little bit of help getting up
to speed for the coming school year, and many students can benefit
from more time spent learning during the summer to prevent the
erosion of grade-level skills. Plus, every student, even
those performing at or above grade level, can benefit from a
program that gets them more involved, engaged, and excited about
learning.
That’s what Summer Journey™ is all about. Far from
being a remedial summer school program, Summer Journey is
a combination of classroom-based instruction and cooperative,
hands-on activities. It makes learning fun and rewarding.
Summer Journey can help a child break through the
frustration of lagging behind academically, and give her or him
more self-confidence and a real sense of the joy that discovery and
knowledge can bring. It can give kids who are achieving at grade
level a memorable, creative summer experience that leaves a lasting
impression, helping them blossom as individuals and explorers.
Summer Journey leverages our holistic, best-practices
approach to curriculum, professional development and support to
help you give the children under your care the best educational
experience possible.
