Academic Achievers’ KinderPrep At Forefront of Early Literacy, Math and Science


According to a 2007 study, by the University of California, children who enter kindergarten with an understanding of basic math concepts, were more likely to be succeeding in math and reading by grade 5. Researchers say a strong grasp of concepts in math and sciences are critical to long-term student success. Students are able to be more successful in higher-level math and science courses. Academic Achievers’ KinderPrep is proud to have been lauded by the Early Learning Director at Caltech.
