What Parents & Students Are Saying
My son Noah is so much happier at GradePower Learning Day School. He is a good student but was nervous in public school and came home upset most days. He is definitely more relaxed now and comfortable going to school. It has only been a few months, and Noah said he would not ever want to leave this school. Sarah and James are two of the nicest people ever. When I first walked into the school as a mother, I felt like the environment was very warm and inviting. I'm glad I was able to find a place where my son could learn and be happy.

Grade Power has helped my sixth grader. Before this school, he did not enjoy going to school. He found it stressful and exhausting. Now he is excited to go to school every day and enjoys the teachers, the curriculum, and the students. The teachers are very supportive in his learning journey and tailor his education to his needs and at his pace.
Christy Biswell
I knew when I enrolled my son at GradePower Learning it was the best program I could have enrolled him in. He was struggling with confidence, reading, and homework time was an absolute headache. I never thought I would see the day when my son actually is excited to learn. We first enrolled him September 2017, and are currently having a great experience with their individualized summer program. The fun energy in the center is obvious as soon as we walk in the door, and I can't rave enough about the awesome curriculum and an amazing team. Thank you GradePower Learning and I look forward to continuing my son's academic journey with the GradePower Learning family.

We couldn't be happier with GradePower Prep Academy. Our son was not making meaningful progress in the public school, and they just kept promoting him to the next grade. There are no more battles about going to school in the morning or afternoon meltdowns. He loves his teachers and enjoys being with his classmates. He made more progress in the first few months than he did in two years of public school. Best of all he has his confidence back!

Summer Learning at GradePower Learning Chesapeake
Summer is almost here! While many students can't wait to hear that final bell ring, learning doesn't stop just because classes do.
DID YOU KNOW?
- Students can lose up to 6 weeks of learning skills over the summer break
- Math skills are hit hardest over the break, with students losing about 2.6 months of math grade-level equivalency
- By the end of 5th grade, children who have not participated in summer learning are 2-3 years behind their peers
Every student needs summer learning to maintain momentum and head back to school motivated and ready to learn.
Here's how gradePower learning can help:
Each of our programs focuses on building classroom skills such as listening, concentrating, memory, and recall. Through our comprehensive programs, not only are we building cognitive skills and helping bridge any gaps in education, but we are also helping provide students with the tools to be better organized, motivated, and confident not only for the next school year but for a lifetime! Research suggests the effects of summer learning programs last for at least two years after a student has engaged in a quality summer program.
Keep your child's brain buzzing over the summer and give them a head start to the new school year and beyond...NEVER STOP LEARNING!
