Rising Readers is returning this Fall! This class provides reading support for students in Kindergarten through 2nd grade and is taught by Rachel Mahle.

Each session offers a fun, engaging whole group lesson. From there, students break into small group rotation to receive 1:1 or 1:2 support. This allows for targeted instruction based on their individual needs and skill levels.

At Rising Readers, instruction will always be taught in a fun, relatable, positive, and encouraging environment where every child can grow as a reader, one page at a time!

Families can register for the full Fall semester at a discounted rate OR choose a convenient monthly payment option. After-school sessions are available on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:45-4:45pm.
