Monthly Meet-up
Virtual

    • Date: Wednesday, February 4th, 2026
    • Time: 10:00am – 11:00am
    • Overview: Join us for a virtual information session where our Math and ELA Curriculum Coordinators will walk families through the instructional programs and interventions used at Provident Charter Schools. This event will provide an overview of our core curricula, including how we teach reading, writing, and math, as well as the targeted interventions that support students with dyslexia and other language-based learning differences.
    • Families will learn what these programs look like in practice, how students move through them over time, and how our team uses data, small-group instruction, and individualized supports to help each child grow. This is a great opportunity to gain insight into the “why” and “how” behind our instruction and to strengthen the partnership between home and school.
