SL@M Summer Program

Actively enrolled 91 rising 5th grade students

93.33% of parents stated in a survey at the end of the program that they felt their child was a lot more ready for middle school since attending SL@M

“I am grateful for this program. I wish they had it

when my oldest was going to middle school. Since

starting SLAM, by son is much more excited about

starting middle school.”

“The SL@M program has encouraged my son to be

more aware of the things that life has to offer. He is

ready in the morning to attend without a fuss. I truly

wish this program was offered in VA when we were

there.”

An email from Nancy Guillemart after the SL@M

family event where she was one administrative

speaker for the Salisbury Middle parent and student

group stated:

“I just wanted to tell you that I was very impressed by

the SLAM program here at SMS. I am a new assistant

principal, completely unfamiliar with SLAM. I have seen

students very engaged, well-behaved, and eager to be

here.”

Student who completed 9th English credit through Credit Recovery: This young man failed English as a 9th graders because he “really didn’t care too much about school back then.” As an 11th grader working in the culinary arts program, he was able to complete the course requirements in three weeks of working two hours a day after school with the assistance of the English teacher provided through the STEP-UP program. “I am very thankful for this program. I work at a restaurant during the summer to help out my family. Summer school wasn’t really possible with my job.”
