Academic Support

Summer Scholar Sessions

Enrolling Now for Summer

A focused summer program designed to close learning gaps and build academic skills — so students start September ahead of the curve.

Don't let summer set your child back.

Summer breaks can widen gaps for students who are already working hard to keep up. Summer Scholar Sessions offer structured, skill-focused programming led by Natalie, a certified Ontario teacher, to help students close those gaps — and actually get ahead before September arrives.

Whether your child needs support in numeracy, literacy, or a specific subject area, Natalie meets them where they are and builds from there. Small groups and individual sessions mean your child gets the attention they deserve.

Tuesday Evenings — Group

Numeracy & Literacy Groups

Small-group sessions of 3–5 students focused on two goals: closing any gaps in your child's current learning, and getting a head start on the curriculum for the year ahead. Students work in a collaborative, supportive environment where Natalie can give each child meaningful attention while building the confidence and strategies they'll carry into September.
