GRASP
is a Reading and Math correspondence program for children
completing grades K-8. There is also an online version for
grades 4-8. The program seeks to help students retain skills
learned during the past school year by providing review
exercises created by curriculum professionals and teachers.
GRASP has 9 lessons to be submitted during the summer—one per
week or at their own pace to work around other activities, as
long as everything is submitted by the deadline. Each lesson
reinforces the basic skills typically found in most curricula at
that particular grade level. GRASP staff score the lesson and
return it to the student with comments. Online students get
immediate results.
Students who successfully complete at least 7 of 9 lessons by
the deadline are awarded a GRASP certificate. A medal is awarded
for 9 successfully completed lessons. For more information or to
enroll, go to
