Thank you for your interest in the Salisbury Summer School. We hope this Web site will answer your questions about what our program has to offer. To supplement our traditional curriculum in Reading, Writing, Math and Study Skills, you will see that we have added several new programs and other features that I will explain briefly in this letter. If you need additional information, however, you may contact our admissions office at 860-435-5732 to speak with us or to order a catalogue.



Since 1946, Salisbury Summer School has been working with boys and girls who have recognized that they need to improve their study skills and general approach to learning. The study techniques and disciplines that we teach can be applied effectively to all aspects of a student’s academic life. Our faculty members use a highly structured curriculum to help students become effective learners while also making that experience enjoyable and rewarding.



Although our traditional academic program focuses on Reading and English, we will now offer several new programs beginning in 2009

 

• Make-up credit in Math now also available, as is now the case with make-up credit in English.


• Instruction in English as a Second Language (ESL), for young scholars from other countries wishing to study in the United States.


• An optional course in SAT preparation to complement the SAT instruction that we include within our current curriculum.


• We will also allow some students to study here as day students and go home at night following study periods and other school obligations.


• Our afternoon activities program will now include arts and crafts in addition to many other offerings.
