YIS SUMMER PROGRAMS
June 24 - July 5, 2013
For Elementary School Students, 'Summer's Cool'

Two weeklong sessions of a balanced and engaging program
Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
Here at YIS, 'Summer's Cool' is focused on working toward pre-identified learning goals in small classes with an outstanding student to teacher ratio. Using indivudual information collected before the start of the program, teachers focus on key areas to improve, providing invaluable support to solidify and extend existing knowledge so each student improves.
Parents are given the opportunity to select an extra class in Math or Language Arts for their child and as teachers are aware of students' individual learning goals, they work toward building the confidence and knowledge students need to thrive in the classroom.
As an integral component of the program (and included in the tuition), Zest Catering will provide a nutritionally balanced diet of healthy snacks and small meals designed to optimize students' energy levels throughout each day of fun and learning. Please see the menus for Week 1 and Week 2.
Our program revolves around a healthy balance of academic, creative, artistic and athletic activities, all held here on the YIS campus by qualified staff eager to make this an outstanding and fun summer of learning, engaging activities, and growth for your child.
