Students enrolled at the Kumon Math and Reading Center of Mesa are proving that hard work and daily practice pay off, even in the summer months when studies tend to subside.
Select students have been named to Kumon’s Advanced Student Honor Roll (ASHR) by making significant academic advancements and studying above their school grade level.
ASHR is Kumon’s most prestigious international recognition program. Kumon ASHR students benefit by having the greatest chance of qualifying for elementary school gifted programs and high school honors and AP programs. In addition, they gain important life skills such as confidence, concentration, perseverance, self-motivation and discipline. Kumon aims to have all its students achieve the distinction of completing advanced work.
“At Kumon, we believe children have unlimited potential to succeed,” said Kumon Director Kathy Leano. “My goal is to help each child develop strong academic skills, a love of learning, and the confidence to excel beyond the classroom.”
Kumon is the world’s largest after-school math and reading enrichment program. Students of all ages visit the Kumon Center twice each week after school. The result of this extra study is stronger concentration, greater confidence and an improvement in math and reading skills.
Through daily practice and mastery of materials, students increase confidence, improve concentration and develop better study and test taking skills. Founded in Japan in 1958, the learning method uses an individualized approach, which helps children develop a solid command of math and reading comprehension skills.
