Combat the Summer Slide with Individualized Summer Learning
Summer often leads to a learning regression, where children can lose up to two months of educational progress. With those facing challenges like autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities, they can potentially slip even further. At West Coast Centre for Learning, our summer individualized learning programs are designed to counteract this 'summer slide' by offering flexible, home-based or online programs. By engaging in our tailored educational enrichment throughout the break, children not only maintain their academic skills but also gain a competitive edge when September arrives.
Current Programs Offered by West Coast Centre for Learning
