The online lessons were especially valuable with valuable explanations of strategies for decoding large words and building comprehension.

Edward
My grandson took the reading camp three years in a row when he was entering the !st grade. His test scores on the stair test have been perfected in reading and only missing 1 in the math. The other granddaughter, Ali, will be taking the camp this summer. She is entering the 2nd grade and she is close to reading 4th grade. Alex will be taking this camp for the 2nd year, and her reading has improved greatly.

Erika
Engaging program! This will be my son's second year. Last year he was severely behind grade level (entering second grade) and I enrolled him in this program after a flyer came home from school. It was one of the best things we could've done over the summer. It got him excited to read! The online "homework" they do between classes is fun and interactive and wordy (the star) was memorable! We look forward to this summer's program!

My child was behind in reading entering 1st grade. I enrolled him in this summer program before entering 2nd grade, it put him at 2nd grade reading level, he was not longer behind.
