Learning Center

A Typical Day at the CSUS After School Learning Center
Imagine using all of your senses to take in the mixture of noise, energy and general mood in a middle school during the school day, and then comparing that to the low hum of 6th to 8th graders working one-to-one with a tutor, just minutes after the school day is over. The comparison is like night and day! Read more >>

Math Programs

Get the most out of your Math Education!
Summer programs for current 5th-7th Graders
The CPS Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) department is offering three summer math programs for students who will be entering Grades 6-8 in September 2015.

  • Students entering Grades 6-7 may be interested in "Summer AMP Prep" -- a free morning math course that will help students build problem-solving skills.

  • Current 7th Graders who are excelling in "Grade Level Math" may wish to transfer into Accelerated Math for next year. Please speak with your child's math teacher to learn more, including about the summer "Bridge" program designed to help students make this transition.

  • Students who are significantly behind in math may be invited to participate in a third program, "Math 180." We will contact you if we think this might be a good option for your student.

Registration forms and further information are posted online.
