Exeter/Antietam TIPs LIVE!
For the first time since Teachers in the Parks started in 2004, TIPs won’t be able to work with children out in the community; however, rock star TIPs’ teachers created engaging online classes to help you establish a summer routine at home, using materials that most people have laying around the house. Each 30-60 minute LIVE lesson begins with a focus on building class rapport and addressing the social and emotional lenses of learning. All classes are standards-based and designed to bridge math and literacy learning gaps. More than anything, the lessons are designed to show children that during this confusing time there are teachers out there who care. Welcome to TIPs LIVE!
About Our Classes:
Classes run from June 29 - August 6
Classes available for students entering Kindergarten - 7th NEXT school year (2020-2021)
Live classes run 30-60 minutes depending on the grade level
Classes are offered two times per week at a scheduled time between the hours of 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM:
Monday/Wednesday - Reading
Tuesday/Thursday - Math
Only $90 per class for the summer! (That’s less than $8 a class!)
NEW FOR THIS YEAR! Parents will register for reading/math classes, BUT TIPs will assign the actual LIVE class time between the hours of 9:00 and 1:00 depending on enrollment and needs of families. Many families have multiple children and limited devices so we’re trying our best to help.
Parents can choose to sign up for a math AND reading class to attend four days a week.
Small class size ratio of 1 teacher to 10 students
All classes taught by certified teachers
In response to parent feedback, we’ve shortened our registration process!
Some online meeting software requires an adult 18 years or older. The teachers will be in charge of the classes, but an adult must be present to help access the technology.
Full and half tuition grants available for families in need. To receive a grant, click the TIPs LIVE Grant link below and fill out the information. Continue the registration process. During the checkout process, click that you are interested in the possibility of receiving a grant. Complete your registration and pay for the classes. Even if your grant is approved, you must pay for the classes up front, and we will issue a refund at the conclusion of TIPs LIVE. TIPs will refund your credit card within two weeks of the conclusion of summer programming. Grants are only awarded to students who attend at least 70% of classes (9 out of 12 classes).
Registering multiple children? Make sure to add a class for each child. For example: If you have two children in reading classes, you would add two reading classes to your cart. You will add details during the checkout process.
