Baton Rouge Schools Designed a New Plan to Help Struggling Students
West Baton Rouge Parish students will get five weeks of summer enrichment. This new program in West Baton Rouge Parish schools is known as Summer Enrichment and Technology Camp. This is a five week class for children who will be fourth graders in the fall, and is designed to help students who are just short of basic competency.
The Advocate reports on the hopes for this program for Baton Rouge students:
"School Superintendent David] Corona hopes the plan will help these students not only retain what they learned the previous year, but will also help them get a head start on the new academic year.
He said he hopes that will mean better academic progress come fall, better grades, and better scores on standardized tests.
If this Baton Rouge schools program shows good results, it is expected to be expanded to include more students."
