The Lewis School Of Princeton
609-924-8120
June 22 - July 10
When bright, creative students fall behind with classwork, or spend hours confused and frustrated trying to keep pace with reading and writing assignments, even the most resilient and curious among them can lose motivation to do their best. Concerned parents look to The Lewis School to understand the reasons and unlock their child's potential.
The Lewis School's three-week summer program serves as a bridge, connecting the current academic year with the one yet to come. Lewis brings the benefits of evidence-based, educational neuroscience to every classroom. Master Teachers instruct students how to harness effective learning, replacing passive memorization with multisensory strategies that tap the many senses and capacities of the brain.
Morning academics emphasize fundamental, accelerated and advanced levels of instruction, study skills, and critical thinking. A diverse selection of afternoon programs creates opportunities across a broad spectrum of student interest and needs. SAT/ACT PREP.
