Bridge the "summer gap"


Now that school is out for the summer, I have to worry about my daughter losing about one month's worth of learning over the break. This is the average, according to research. There are programs out there, like the Summer Program by Score. They've been helping children catch up, keep up, and get ahead for nearly fifteen years.

Unfortunately, the closest Score center to me is in Texas. Hopefully they will expand and open a center nearby, because the schools in Northwest Arkansas are very competitive and proud of their high test scores and education levels. If the kids had a program to bridge them through the summer break, their test scores would improve accordingly and I know many parents who would sign their children up in a heartbeat.
