Keep math skills sharp over the
summer! Materials that students
will cover during the summer
review support concepts they have
encountered during their previous
school year.
It is not a tutoring program and it
is not an enrichment program to
advance students ahead. It offers
practice of previously learned
concepts to keep skills sharp
and build confidence. Students
will take a pre-test and fill out a
questionnaire to individualize their
program.
Students will then receive nine
weeks of materials. Each week’s
packet will include five math lessons
with problem-solving activities. The
activities will apply to a specific
math concept or strand. After the
student has completed a packet,
they will mail it in. We’ll make
corrections, provide feedback and
mail it back. Students may start and
finish the course at their own pace
throughout the strands. When all
lessons are completed, students will
receive a certificate of achievement
and restaurant meal coupon.

programs show improved school attendance,
behavior, and core academic performance.

persistence, and initiative
Regular participation in high-quality afterschool
programs is linked to significant gains in
standardized test scores and work habits as
well as reductions in behavior problems.
