🚀 THE COUNTDOWN IS ON! ✨📚Get ready, Chattanooga! The magic is officially returning. The Educate 2 Elevate Freedom School is coming back for Summer 2026! 🎬
We are turning the "summer slide" into a summer leap, combining research-based literacy with high-energy culture. We aren’t just teaching children to read; we are building their confidence to lead.
📊 Last year, our scholars achieved:
📈 9 MONTHS of reading growth in just 6 weeks.
🔥 87.5% completely avoided the summer slide.
💯 100% parent recommendation.
This year, we are dreaming BIGGER. We are expanding to serve 40 SCHOLARS (up from 30!) because Chattanooga’s potential has no limits.
Watch the reel to feel the energy, and get ready for the best summer yet.
