Summer Brain Training

Prevent summer learning loss! Summer Bridge Activities is an AWARD-WINNING summer learning series that is an easy and proven way to help children retain their classroom skills. Research shows that on average, children can lose 2.8 months of grade-level equivalency skills over their summer vacation.

If your child brings in their COMPLETED Summer Bridge book, I will give them a special prize for next year.
