The Gow School Summer Program

June 28 - August 1, 2020

Our five-week program is designed for students ages 8–16 who possess the potential to excel but who have struggled in school or who have been diagnosed with such learning disabilities as dyslexia, central auditory processing disorder (CAPD), dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and ADD.

“Summer school” doesn’t begin to cover Gow’s exciting and challenging summer program, designed for students who have been experiencing academic difficulties or who have language-based learning differences. Employing the expertise that has made The Gow School a leader in language remediation, the summer program helps participants improve academic performance by teaching skills as well as material, enhancing confidence, and instilling discipline and sportsmanship. It also provides plenty of opportunities for enrichment, recreation, new experiences, and fun.
