The Windward Summer Program is a four-week instructional program for students within and outside the Windward community. The Summer Program is a group learning model that is designed for children in grades 2-9 who possess average to superior intelligence and are not meeting their academic potential. The multisensory curriculum is designed for students who benefit from direct instruction, small class sizes, and the review, reinforcement, and repetition of skills. Volunteers for the summer program will participate in classroom activities and instruction alongside our Windward faculty members. Volunteers will gain hands-on experience in lesson instruction, classroom management, and relationship building with students. Ideal for high school juniors and seniors and college students interested in pursuing a career in teaching or special education.
