Summer@Taft: Young Writer’s Enrichment Institute for Grades 7 & 8

For motivated students who wish to improve their expository writing skills, develop their reading comprehension skills, and enhance their study skills. Designed for students entering grades 7 and 8, this program aims to elevate students with academic potential to the next level.

At Summer@Taft, we believe strongly that students should have CHOICES. Our individualized academic program enables students to further their academic progress by choosing a course of study that suits their personal needs and interests. Summer@Taft offers dynamic faculty, a beautiful 226-acre campus, modern facilities, a 4:1 student-to-faculty ratio, and an average class size of 10 students.

In the Young Writer's Enrichment Institute, students will learn to write effective expository paragraphs with focus and clarity; develop their reading comprehension skills; and improve their time management, organizational, and study habits in preparation for high school. Outside the classroom, students take part in daily athletics as well as on- and off-campus trips and activities. This two-week residential program is for U.S. residents only.
