What to Expect
On the first day of camp, all students will be assessed with a quick reading and math assessment that will give our teachers an idea of your student’s academic level, strengths, and weaknesses. Students will be assessed again at the end of camp using a similar measure.
Students will be placed in groups of no more than six students who have similar academic needs. Students may be placed in different groups for reading and math, depending on their individual needs. A teacher will work with each small group in reading and math to target the specific areas where students most need help. Our curriculum is hands-on, direct, and fun. Games and brain-benders are incorporated throughout, so students have engaging ways to practice skills that get their juices flowing and ready for school.
All Blast Off for Success students will receive a FREE T-shirt and a free book at the end of each camp week(s). Plus, each day is an opportunity to earn prizes for focused work and positive camp spirit!
