Did you know that our program has a special partnership with Webster University? For many years now, our summer program has worked closely with the graduate reading program at Webster. Their students are all certified teachers who are working towards their reading specialist certification. For their practicum class, these teachers provide reading specialist support to our Elementary Summer Academy students.
It truly is a win-win situation! Our program wins by receiving ten extra teachers to provide individualized reading instruction to our students, and Webster University wins by having a school for their teachers to learn from experienced reading specialists and work with students to fulfill their certification. This means we have thirteen reading specialists here this summer! Wow!
We are so grateful to have this opportunity and it is a joy seeing them in action:
