Helping Students in Grades 4-7 Overcome Reading Challenges and Thrive
At Saint Francis Schools, we understand how hard it can be to see your child struggle with reading. Transitioning to more advanced texts in grades 4-7 can feel like a daunting leap, especially for students who have already worked hard to remediate basic reading and writing skills. That’s why our Reading Comprehension Program is designed with one goal in mind: to meet your child where they are and guide them to grade-level proficiency. Together, we’ll help your student overcome challenges, build confidence, and thrive academically.
Why Our Program Works: A Supportive and Proven Approach
We know that every child’s journey to academic success is unique. Our Reading Comprehension Program is designed to meet students where they are, providing personalized support, gradual progression, and proven strategies to help them rebuild confidence and achieve grade-level proficiency. Here’s how we make a lasting difference for your child.
Personalized Support for Every Student
Our Reading Comprehension Program begins with assessments to identify strengths and needs, using pretests, benchmarks, and post-tests to guide instruction. This personalized approach ensures steady progress and support.
Gradual Progression for Building Confidence
Success happens one step at a time. Our program starts with shorter texts to build confidence and gradually moves to more complex material at a manageable pace. This approach helps students tackle reading challenges with a positive mindset.
Proven Strategies That Make a Difference
Our educators use strategies like review, repetition, and scaffolding to help students master key skills. These proven methods ensure that your child retains what they learn and engages deeply with texts, setting them up for long-term success.
What Makes Saint Francis Schools the Right Choice?
When it comes to helping students succeed, Saint Francis Schools goes beyond academics. Our programs are designed with a thoughtful balance of structure and support, ensuring every child feels valued and empowered to achieve their goals. Here’s how we create an environment where students thrive both in and out of the classroom.
A Balanced and Focused Academic Schedule
We believe that consistency is key to success. That’s why students in our Reading Comprehension Program receive two daily periods of focused reading instruction. To provide a well-rounded educational experience, we balance their schedule with science for half of the year and social studies for the other half. This thoughtful structure allows us to prioritize their reading growth while maintaining a comprehensive academic foundation.
A Caring, Encouraging Environment
At Saint Francis Schools, we create a community where every student is supported in becoming their best self. Our educators are passionate about helping students overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. With personalized instruction and an unwavering commitment to each child’s success, we help students build the confidence they need to thrive—not just in reading, but in life.
Let’s Work Together to Help Your Child Succeed
When your child feels supported, there’s no limit to what they can achieve. Our Reading Comprehension Program is more than just a literacy course—it’s a pathway to confidence, academic growth, and a lifelong love of learning. At Saint Francis Schools, we’re here to guide your child every step of the way.
