What I enjoyed most about the summer reading program was the strong engagement between teachers and students. The interaction and support provided created a positive learning environment, and I truly wouldn't change anything about that aspect. Mr. Kevin B. is a phenomenal educator with an engaging personality. The children loved him. Where I feel the program could improve is in the design of the student portal. I believe it would be beneficial to have a more interactive platform—one that not only encourages daily engagement but also offers adaptive challenges for students who are more advanced. For instance, my daughter often breezed through the assigned tasks and was left with little else to do. Even when we tried to pace the activities, the material didn't offer enough depth or variety to keep her fully engaged or challenged. Incorporating tiered activities, bonus challenges, or optional enrichment tasks could help students like her stay motivated and continue progressing at their own pace. Overall, my child did gain some skills from the program, but I wouldn’t say they were skills she could’ve only learned by enrolling. That said, it was still a great experience and definitely worth trying at least once. It gave us insight into a different style of learning and provided valuable structure over the summer.

Kassidy really enjoyed the reading program and it was very informative and interactive.

This program encourages into reading

This was a valuable experience for my child. The program is well structured to allow each child to progress at a reasonable pace.

A summer class like this can help any and all students stay sharp over the summer. My son enjoys learning but isn't always happy to do homework, especially over the summer. I think he liked having some work over the summer, though, after all. He liked meeting the other students in the class and developed a good rapport with the teachers. He felt he learned some things and it was helpful to him.

Ms. Eve is excellent and has a natural way to be sure that ALL the students are included ! Thank you
