The Springboard Collaborative Summer Literacy and Math Accelerator is a five-week intensive program designed to prevent summer learning loss and accelerate academic growth in reading and math for elementary students. The program utilizes a research-based curriculum delivered by teachers and significantly involves families through its Family-Educator Learning Accelerator (FELA) methodology. Students are assessed, placed in small groups, and work on personalized goals. Families participate in weekly workshops to learn strategies for supporting reading and math practice at home, fostering a collaborative learning environment between home and school. The program aims to build essential literacy and math skills, increase student confidence, and establish routines that support success throughout the academic year. Students typically gain several months of reading growth in just five weeks.
Students attend daily half-day literacy and math classes in small groups, with families participating in weekly workshops to support at-home learning.
The program is ideal for elementary students who need to sustain or improve reading and math skills and for families who want to be actively involved in their child's learning.
