ELEMENTARY: COURSE DESCRIPTION & PRICES

Focus on Foundations

Through our Focus on Foundations classes, students learn the key standards in math, reading and writing needed to build a strong foundation that leads to long-term academic success. Classes are divided into 4 levels each representing a different ability level and key focus. Students take an entrance diagnostic to place them into the correct class for their current skill level. As students progress, they can test up at any point.

By focusing on foundational skills, students spend time mastering the most vital skills in each subject. This ensures that students can catch-up more quickly and understand what’s being taught in their regular classes. For students who are already at grade-level, students can quickly advance well beyond their grade level.

Math Foundations

Math courses cover both math concepts and math applications. In conceptual classes, students master the overarching number sense upon which all math is built. In application classes, students learn critical thinking and problem solving as they apply key concepts to mathematical applications and word problems.

Reading Foundations

Reading courses will begin with targeted lessons on specific comprehension skills using short fiction and non-fiction passages. The alternating class are spent reading real books together, as students learn to apply their comprehension skills to literature.

Writing Foundations

Writing courses include both grammar and composition. The grammatical portion focuses on learning the logic and structure of the English language, while the composition portion teaches students to express their own ideas and thoughts with clarity and style.

SECONDARY: GET READY SERIES 

Get Ready Series

Through our Get Ready classes, students prepare for challenging math and science courses by learning the foundations they need to succeed during the school year. Students starting Honors or AP courses are especially encouraged to enroll, as these classes assume a strong understanding of foundational material that most students have not been actively taught.

Get Ready courses are taught as 2-week intensives, and will focus on ensuring students have the pre-requisite knowledge required for the course along with pre-teaching key concepts they will encounter in the Fall. At the end of each class, students will have learned core material while creating a reference guide of key terms and equations and multiple study aids for use throughout the year.

Get Ready for Math

A strong foundation in algebraic operations, functions, and geometry are key to student success in math and that is exactly what we build in our Get Ready for Math classes (formerly called Foundations of Algebra & Geometry).

In Get Ready for Math, students will cover prerequisite knowledge they must have mastered before starting their school-year math classes, along with covering major topics from their Fall semesters to give them a head start on mastering math!

Levels and topics covered are listed below, if your child is struggling with math (received a C grade or lower in their last math class) please reach out for placement recommendations.

Math A: preps for Math 7 and Math 8

Topics Covered: Decimal & Fraction operations, Negative Integers, Proportions, Equations, Linear Equations, Area/Volume/Surface Area of Compound Shapes

Math B: preps for Math I and Math II and Acc Math I/II

Topics Covered: Integer Operations, Solving Equations, Linear Equations, Linear Inequalities, Systems of Equations, Function Notation, Sequences, Coordinate Geometry, Volume & Surface Area of Cones/Pyramids, Geometric Proofs

Math C: Preps for Math III and Acc Math II/III

Topics Covered: Linear Functions, Exponential Functions, Quadratic Functions, Polynomial Operations, Polynomial Functions, Intro to Trigonometry

Get Ready for Science

Science classes (especially Honors & AP) expect students to walk through the door with a working knowledge of the subject, even though most students haven’t touched the material since middle school, if they’ve learned it at all.

Through Get Ready for Science, we’ll teach your student the foundations of Chemistry, Biology or Physics they need to understand what’s happening in class. We also dive into the key content from the year, to ensure they’re already familiar with core material so it’s easier when they reach it in school. 

A significant focus in each class is the acquisition of key knowledge and the create of study guides and cheat sheets for students to use throughout the year to support them in studying and completing homework. 

CP students are welcome and encouraged to join science prep courses!

Chemistry: preps for Chemistry H & AP Chem

Topics Covered: Atomic Composition, Electron Configuration, The Periodic Table and Trends, Chemical Nomenclature, Balancing Equations, Reaction Types, Moles and Stochiometry

Biology: preps for Biology H & AP Bio

Topics Covered: Organisms and Ecosystems, Human Body Systems, Plant & Animal Cells, Macromolecules, Intro to Cellular Processes

Physics: preps for Physics H & AP Physics

Topics Covered: Motion and Key Equations, Force and Key Laws, Work & Energy, Electrostatics, Electricity & Circuits, Magnetism

SECONDARY: SOCRATIC HONORS ACADEMY

Socratic Honors Academy

This course equips students to be lifelong learners and scholars, by integrating English, History and the other Humanities. Students journey thematically through enjoyable literature, write analytical papers, research historical context and learn to present their ideas and argue thoughtfully through dialectic-style discussion groups.

As part of the class, students will go on excursions all around LA exploring art museums, watching Shakespeare in the Park, and much more!

As this program is through our honors academy, to enroll students must be invited to join or pass an intake interview. Upon enrollment, our Honors Director, Kyle Keene, will reach out to schedule an interview with your child.

Literature & Discussion

Books are our greatest instructors, and through our Summer programs students focus in on 3-4 key texts written by great authors of Western and World literary traditions.

Each 2-week camp includes designated time for reading as well as a 2-hr Socratic Discussion daily.

Middle school courses center on specific literary analysis frameworks needed for English classes: The Hero’s Journey, Character Archetypes, or Symbolism.

High school courses are student-directed genre studies, chosen by the Socratic Honors Club during their Spring semester.  

Academic Writing

All of our Socratic courses focus on writing as a key element of academic success. Students must be able to express their ideas in eloquently written essays with clear argumentation and purpose. All students are required to complete multiple short writing assignments and a capstone paper or presentation.

Students are provided 2-hr writing workshops on T/Th to support their writing development.

Middle School courses focus on developing argumentation through short answer essays and a capstone presentation showcasing their use and understanding of the analytical framework taught in class.

High School courses spend their two weeks writing a college-level capstone paper that either provides an analysis of a work in their chosen genre or a narrative showcasing the genre elements in their own creative work.

Trips & Excursions

One of the major highlights of our summer programs are our Socratic Honors Excursions where students explore art and cultural locations throughout LA and learn to understand and appreciate great works of art, cinema, and theater.

Last summer, students explored art at The Getty Villa, explored the cosmos at Griffith Observatory, and enjoyed a family Shakespeare night watching Hamlet performed by Shakespeare by the Sea.

This summer we’re planning brand new excursions for our students (and parents who want to join!) to enjoy LA museums, watch great plays and cinema, and enjoy all the great culture LA has to offer!
