Who thinks about school in the middle of the summer season?
The parents and students who understand that when you maximize your summers by studying, reading, and exploring; you increase your chances of success in the school year. In the pursuit of education there is really no breaks, no vacation, no let down; education and academic achievement is a lifelong pursuit.
The old adage that "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" does not apply to the young minds we have to mold and the skills sets our youth need to develop. Information in the world is moving at an accelerated pace, such that, students now need to know how to access information, verify what they have accessed, and interpret what they have acquired. Those skills must be coupled with the tradition reading, writing and arithmetic.
Make certain that you include in your child's program incentives for achieving good grades, special trips for classroom success, and a special wall in your home for their citations and certificates.
Make academic achievement the gold standard in your home.
Our children are too valuable to be left behind.
