Summer Speech
Just because school’s out doesn’t mean your child has to fall behind or lose those awesome speech skills!
The Summer Speech program is a crucial and beneficial program that gives children the ability to retain any and all skills learned throughout the school year.
The Summer Speech program builds upon the success the child has learned and enables the child to grow and add new skills by utilizing enhanced interventions.

To be considered, students with moderate or severe speech/language disorders who need therapy during the summer to maintain or increase skills they have acquired in Speech Therapy during the previous school year are chosen.
