9 Reasons to Enroll in an Elite Summer Learning Track
Starting May 21, Elite Academic Academy is offering free summer learning programs.
From athletes needing to jumpstart their courses to young learners needing extra support this summer, there’s a program for just about everyone.
Of course, we can think of several reasons why you should enroll in an Elite summer learning track. For your sake, we’ve narrowed it down to nine.
Check them out.
1. Our summer programs are tuition free
Three words: free summer learning. Need we say more?
2. Keep the brain active over summer…and keep your sanity
It serves a dual purpose, really.
Studies show that students on average return from summer break one month behind in learning than they were before the break. It’s a newer term called “Summer Learning Loss,” or “Summer Academic Slide,” and there’s a pretty simple solution: Keep your child learning over the summer however you can.
And, if we’re being honest, most of us count down the days until our students return to school. From the homeschool to the traditional parent, the leading cause of hair loss and stress wrinkles are those last few weeks of summer break. (We’re sure there’s a study for that somewhere…)
So, why not maintain your sanity and help your child’s brain by enrolling in one of Elite’s summer programs?
3. Enjoy unique classes through Elite
Robotics, theater, Gaming Unlocked, the list goes on. Elite has several online, in-person and blended summer programs happening that probably aren’t available at your current public school.
For grades K–12, there are summer learning opportunities happening throughout Southern California that will allow your student to discover a new talent.
For grades 6–12, there is also a summer virtual academy. This 100% online program will be offering awesome electives designed for today’s teen learners. You can learn more here.
4. Several locations for your convenience
The last way you want to spend your summer is driving your student from place to place.
We get that.
That’s why we’ve teamed up with several different vendors throughout Southern California to ensure there’s a summer learning opportunity conveniently located for you. You can see locations here.
Or, better yet, don’t worry about transportation at all. If your student is in grades 6–12, you can enroll in a 100% online summer track.
5. Improve athletic skills
For the athletes, there are several training programs happening this summer to keep your child in shape and improve their skill levels.
6. Or, develop talents
Maybe your child is more into the arts?
We’ve got a summer program for them too. From rock bands to dance to theater, there are quite a few exciting visual and performing arts academies happening this summer.
7. Get prepped for the upcoming year
You certainly don’t want your student to start the next school year already struggling.
There are a number of academic summer programs happening with Elite this summer, as well. English and math camps are available with individualized support from instructors to get your child ahead of the game by fall.
8. Still have time to enjoy summer
Most summer programs last about 4–6 weeks, so you’ll still have time to relax and enjoy family vacations before the school year starts.
9. “Test Drive“ Elite before enrolling for fall
Elite is starting full swing come this Fall 2018.
Our summer learning tracks are a great way to “test drive” and see if we might be the best option for you. You can enroll with us just for the summer or stay with us for the 2018-19 school year.
Introducing Elite Academic Academy
If there’s one thing a Californian knows, it’s that children deserve options in their education.
Perhaps that’s why California ranks first nationally on the number of charter schools throughout the state, with 630,000 students enrolled in a charter school.
Knowing your child has several options is both liberating and stressful. After all, it’s great knowing you’re not tied to a local district school if that’s not what’s best for you, but how do you figure out what is the best option?
It’s those questions that lead us to bring you one more option: Elite Academic Academy. Although the school is new, the educators and administrators are certainly not ‘new’ to the field.
We’ve brought in some of the best administrators of both the traditional and alternative educational field to bring we believe to be the best blend of both worlds for a superior educational experience.
Bridging the Gap Between The Traditional & Charter World
If you combine all our administrator’s educational experience, you’d get 75 years worth. That’s three-quarters of a century.
We have public educators who have won several awards. We also have leaders who have been in the online education space since practically its beginning. It’s truly a rare gem to have a pioneer who helped the online education world develop and evolve.
With such diversity in experience, Elite’s leadership is able to supervise and administrate a variety of programs in order to provide a personalized learning experience for students.
About Elite’s Programs: Our Virtual Academy
The virtual academy is 100% online for 6–12th grade independent learners.
This program comes with structured flexibility; students can learn at their own pace where they choose. Highly qualified teachers and counselors are available to provide 1-1 attention whenever needed.
Along with teacher support is an engaging digital curriculum. We partner with StrongMind, a rigorous and aligned curriculum that includes multimedia and interactive content to help students enjoy learning.
Homeschool Academy
Like any homeschool, parents are the primary educators in this model. With Elite, every student enrolled in grades TK-12 also enjoys support from a California Credentialed Elite Educator.
In our homeschool academy, we work with each family individually to develop a personalized learning plan. This ensures that your child’s education is geared to their best interest and designed to meet their specific needs.
For those interested in independent study, but feel they could use more in-person support, we have the perfect blend coming soon.
A blended learning program will be starting up fall 2018. Students will enjoy a creative, relaxed environment where they work with Elite’s highly qualified, caring faculty and staff to customize their learning and prepare for the future.
