Proven Results for
Young Learners
Built on the longstanding success of the Waterford Upstart program, the Summer Learning Path began as an at-home response to Covid learning loss in 2020. The program saw tremendous results for students entering kindergarten in 2020, 2021, and 2022.
Waterford.org is expanding the Summer Learning Path to include students entering K-3rd grade. This means you can accelerate learning for more students over the summer, at home, without adding strain on your district staff or resources.

“With the addition of the Waterford Upstart home instruction, we continue to bridge the area of home-school learning and renew the concept of the parent as the child’s first teacher. Districts are always looking for that home-school connection and how to have students arrive in kindergarten ready to learn.”
