Summer Brain Camp programs
Send your child’s brain to camp this summer! Did you know that research in the field of summer learning shows that children who take a break from learning over the summer months can drop the grade equivalent of two months of learning? But kids who learn all summer long avoid the dreaded summer brain drain and head back to school ahead of their classmates, motivated to learn!

Make Time for Learning This Summer!
With the school year coming to a close parents and students alike are in full-on summer planning mode. For most families, summer is far from the idyllic summer image of long lazy days spent lounging poolside for days on end. Parents fill up their children’s summer schedule with day and sleep-away camps, lessons and team sports, activities, and groups. But regardless of how busy your child’s schedule is, be sure to make time for learning this summer!
Studies have shown that children who maintain their learning momentum over the summer months are more geared up for learning in the fall than students who don’t engage in any sort of formal learning.
Train the Brain this summer…
Just like a piano player who doesn’t practice before a recital or a marathon runner who doesn’t train before a race, students who don’t keep up some measure of learning during the summer don’t perform as well when they head back to school in the fall. Because learning is cumulative, students who didn’t engage in academic training during the summer have to spend extra time catching up by reviewing lessons from last year.
Research in the field of summer learning loss shows that during the summer months, students who don’t engage in some form of educational activity can drop the grade equivalency of two months of learning. Students who maintained their learning momentum during the summer were better prepared for academic success in the fall.
