Sessions | Ages 8-13
Set them up for success this school year - and for life!
Growing Scholars aims to improve a child's potential for success at school and home by teaching essential skills that promote the development of a positive attitude, healthy habits, and independent routines. Essential skills include social and emotional awareness, developing a growth mindset, goal setting, habit awareness, reflection, and revision. We also aim to motivate high-achieving and gifted students to go beyond what they thought possible.
Do you struggle to get your kid to engage, do homework, and be successful in school?
School feels overwhelming
school days are “boring”
homework feels like a punishment
Kids can learn ways to change the feeling of overwhelm by organizing challenges and learning to work with a positive attitude, growth mindset and perseverance - and tap into executive skills like working memory, initiating tasks, and sustained work.
They can have a better attitude about school when they understand what's in it for them. Character building, growth mindset, and a positive outlook can be learned. Mindfulness and the power of thoughts and habits can make a difference in their perception, experience, and success.
Your kids doesn't need to feel buried by homework and other school tasks that frustrate them or that they don't want to do. Learning to prioritize, organize, initiate tasks, and complete work independently are learned skills. Stop the awful afternoons of misery.
Some kids look for excuses to not perform at their potential. Some don't have the tools.
The good news is that it doesn’t have to be this way.

Interactive Learning with Kathleen Losi, Ed.D.
Your Summer Session Educator
As a teacher and mother of two, I know how disruptive the start-stop nature of summer can be on your child’s learning. I understand how frustrating it can be when your child resists learning during breaks, even though it would bolster their confidence during the school year to come.
That’s why I created my Growing Scholars Summer Sessions – to engage elementary and junior high level students with creative stimulation to strengthen their executive skills, maintain a good attitude and become more independent.
“My child had a fantastic year in 4th grade with you. She learned so much and really thrived in your class. She absolutely adored having you as her teacher and is so sad that school year is coming to an end. I’m always grateful when someone inspires my children, so THANK YOU!”
-Angela B.
“Thank you for helping to make this such a fun and memorable year for my kid. You’ve been so helpful, and we appreciate the patience you’ve had as we worked through some of Ryan's challenges. He’ll miss you a great deal!”
