                                     ….Any Time of the Year!

Virtual Summer School Online specializes in skill-by-skill workshops and great enrichment programming that will keep students engaged and focused.

Why Summer Learning?

  • Build Up Weak Skills 

    Summer is a great time to move ahead while age-mates are standing still. If your student struggles in school or seems a bit “behind,” take this opportunity to get ahead of the game! Sometimes all it takes is just a little nudge to fill in gaps that prevent kids from succeeding. Choose from our selection of skill-based workshops to boost specific skills like long division or writing great sentences. We offer prescriptive learning at its finest!

  • Exercise Mental Muscle 

The brain is just like a muscle in that it needs exercise to thrive         and become strong.  Just think what would happen to your body if you allowed your muscles to atrophy for THREE MONTHS! Not a pretty picture, is it? The exact same thing happens to brains when they are allowed to go unchallenged for weeks on end. No wonder your child protests and complains when school starts back up-the brain is flabby and out of shape! Prevent this with a regular program of mental exercise here at Virtual Summer School Online.

  • Prevent “Summer Slide”

According to Oxford Learning*, the average student LOSES from one to three months of progress over the summer. Schools spend at least six weeks in the fall simply reviewing lost skills. The damage is particularly serious in the area of reading: most students lose between two and three months’ worth of progress over summer. Talk about two steps backward for every step forward!

But There is a Cure for That….

The best news is that with only two to three hours of focus per week, you can prevent this problem for your child. Virtual Summer School Online is a great solution.
