Lake Michigan Academy located in Grand Rapids is here to help you catch the summer slide! If you are worried your child will not be ready for school this fall, we can help. While it is not uncommon for students to forget information they learned the previous school year over the summer break, remote learning and hybrid programs have contributed to an even greater loss of learning for some of our most vulnerable students. Lake Michigan Academy’s summer program is designed to minimize this summer slide by keeping students’ minds engaged with exciting, hands-on activities that encourage academic growth as well as important remedial work that will address any gaps in learning your child has acquired.

Lake Michigan Academy's in-person five-week summer program will take place June 21 - July 22 this summer and will provide students in grades 1-8 with individualized instruction in reading, writing, and math. Our program combines the expertise of LMA faculty with research-based techniques to provide students with learning disabilities and/or ADHD with skill-based instruction and success.

During the summer program, students will also experience daily hands-on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities focused on a new theme each week, culminating with a field trip each Thursday that relates to the weekly theme. 

“We were blown away by the positive impact the LMA Summer School had on our son! I had nearly given up the search for a summer program that would provide that boost my son needed.  He struggled in school and we were afraid that without a structured program he would slide back over the summer.  This school seemed to be just what we were looking for.  It took only one week for my normally shy son to feel comfortable.  He was waving hello and goodbye to the other students and more importantly he really liked school.  And he was learning a lot!  My husband and I were so happy with this program that we made the decision to move him to LMA full time.  Whether your child normally attends LMA or any other school; this is a program worth looking at!” -Robyn
