Program Description
This program offers high school students the support they need to be successful attending summer school.
Summer school moves at an accelerated pace. For students with a learning difference, the fast paced nature of summer school often requires additional one-to-one support to solidify key concepts, organize thinking and work, and submit all assignments. Our highly qualified learning support staff and our amazing team of specialized, passionate instructors can help students stay on track with core courses like English, Math, Science and Socials.
Parents or guardians can apply for Summer School Success through our online application form below.

Fees: We’re pleased to offer a generous sliding scale to fees based on household income. Please apply or contact us to learn more.
