When you're part of the Mathnasium family you know that summer fun and improved math skills go together like peanut butter and jelly! We know how to make these weeks away from school the perfect blend of fun and productivity, so that your child is confident and prepared when they go back to school in the fall.

Luckily, there are plenty of things parents can do over the break to combat summer learning loss.
