Leapfrog

Leapfrog, Center for Talent Development’s biggest and fastest-growing summer program, provides innovative academic enrichment courses for students completing PreK (entering kindergarten in the fall of 2009) through grade 3 with strong math and/or verbal ability.

Leapfrog half-day classes meet three hours a day. Leapfrog also has an all-day program for students completing grade 3 and ready to study one subject in depth for an extended period of time. All courses meet Monday through Friday, for one week, and students may attend one, two or three weeks of courses. Each course includes substantial and engaging hands-on activities designed to help youngsters acquire and practice new concepts in challenging and interesting ways. Leapfrog students not only enjoy thorough and in-depth explorations of science, math and language arts topics, they also have fun learning, talking and connecting with other smart kids who share their interests and abilities.
