For students entering grades 1 – 5 in the 2022-23 school year
$1505 for the four-week program
8:30 – 11:30am
Greengate School’s four-week program works to strengthen language and math skills for
children with reading difficulties. The program offers daily reading tutorials conducted by
specialists trained in Orton-Gillingham instruction, an approach designed for bright children
who struggle in reading, spelling and writing. This helps ensure the child doesn’t lose
precious academic ground during the long weeks of summer.
Studies show that all students experience about a month of learning loss during the summer,
and for students with dyslexia, the losses may amount to as much as 3 months. Weaknesses in
memory, processing speed, attention, and language development cause skills to erode more
quickly. As a result, students have to spend more time reviewing at the beginning of each school
year in order to catch up. Continuing instruction during the summer months can help
greatly reduce learning loss.
Who should attend?
Students entering grades 1 - 5 who:
• have good verbal abilities who struggle in reading, spelling, writing, and/or math
• need continued summer instruction to ensure maintenance or continued growth of skills
• can work in a small group setting without major behavioral problems
• thrive within a multi-sensory instructional environment.
Children do not need any special testing or learning diagnosis to be eligible to attend the summer
reading program, but parents must submit information for review before acceptance and some
pre-screening is required. We are not able to support children with emotional and/or behavioral
difficulties in our summer reading program. If it is determined after the program begins that a
student has emotional and/or behavioral difficulties, the student may be removed from the
program. Under these circumstances, the cost of the program is non-refundable.You can also read
