Here’s your opportunity to find out about the summer learning loss program.
| This is Summer School…. | THIS IS SUMMER SAIL !!!!! | |
| Research reveals little of no academic gains with remedial instruction for learning deficits in Summer School. | vs | Academic bursts of hale and hearty instruction target selected state standards in SAIL, rather than focusing on individual student deficits |
| Summer School is reserved and mandated consequence for those who fail, seldom motivating students who must work week-by-week to learn the same materials, concepts, and activities originally failed during the school year. | vs | SAIL is an opportunity for some students to close the gap of learning loss, while others stretch beyond the mean with one-week, motivating modules of instruction; quite unlike their usual classroom experiences, all learning finishes in one week and new content and themes resume the next. |
| Content is based upon what “I Can’t” do, and progress is measured by what is overcome at the end of Summer School. | vs | “I Can” statements chart the course for instruction toward Indiana Standards; Progress Reports are checklists of mastery sent home every Friday. |
| Summer School is a summer-long commitment with little flexibility for vacations and other summer activities. | vs | Students register for as many one-week sessions as desired, accommodating for vacations and other summer activities. |
| Summer School replicates typical school-year schedules for classroom instruction. | vs | SAIL is an adventure with long bouts of time structured for learning and socialization. |
| Summer School is the traditional, obsolete, unmotivating, and ineffective approach to remediate learning gaps and losses, with little evidence of success. | vs | Fresh winds of blended learning, critical thinking, in-class instruction, collaborative aims, state standards, and easily-understood “I can” assessments all propel SAIL. |
