| Flexible programs to fit your needs |
| Enriching the academic content of summer school is simple when all lesson materials, training and support are included in one comprehensive package. Learning Together can even help you find funding that is available especially for summer programs. |
| |
| Depending on the timeline, summer programs may use Learning Together's standard 30-lesson curriculum or opt for 15-lesson modules. Either way, your staff will have the training and materials to run a successful summer program and carry it over for the school year. Learning Together offers the flexibility to implement our summer program with cross-age tutors or adult mentors, in school or in the community. On-site coordinator training, tutor preparation and prescriptive lessons ensure that programs maintain their integrity whatever the implementation model. Read more about the steps to success. |

| Learning Together will suggest guidelines for selecting tutees through local or state assessment scores and teacher recommendations. We’ll also help you pick the tutor model that makes the most of your available resources. We send highly qualified trainers to your district to prepare your program coordinators, who then in turn train your tutors. Through direct instruction and role play, tutors learn literacy and math skills and practice applying appropriate strategies, giving tutors the skills and confidence to lead their tutees through each lesson. |

 |  | When school was in session, the resource faucet was turned on for all children, and all gained equally; when school was not in session, the school resource faucet was turned off. In summers, poor families could not make up for the resources the school had been providing, and so their children's achievement reached a plateau or even fell back.
