SUMMER CLASSES
RISING 9TH GRADE
CORE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
THIS CLASS IS AN ADVANCED CLASS DESIGNED TO HELP RISING 9TH GRADERS DEVELOP AND MASTER THE CORE SKILLS THEY NEED FOR SUCCESS.
STUDENTS OFTEN STRUGGLE WITH HIGH SCHOOL MATH AND ENGLISH, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS LIKE GEOMETRY THEOREMS/PROOFS & LITERARY ANALYSIS. THIS IS LARGELY DUE TO THE FACT THAT MANY STUDENTS HAVE YET TO DEVELOP THE LOGICAL REASONING SKILL SETS NECESSARY FOR THESE OBJECTIVES.
THROUGH OUR CORE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM, STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO EXCEL IN THESE AREAS, MAKING THE TRANSITION TO HIGHER LEARNING MUCH EASIER TO HANDLE.
