Topic mastery checks
Each topic has a mastery check. Parents receive an SMS notice when that check happens.

How math progress is checked and shared.
Parents receive updates at specific points: after topic mastery checks, at six-week progress checks during a plan and after a full assessment at the end of a plan.

A regular rhythm
For most children, we recommend 10 visits per month. The check-in rhythm gives parents clear points to discuss what their child has worked on.
- Each topic
- A mastery check, followed by an SMS notice to parents.
- Every six weeks
- A progress check during the plan, with a detailed written report.
- End of the plan
- A full assessment and a detailed written report.
Attendance and progress are related, but different
Ten visits per month is the usual recommendation for most children.
Regular visits give your child repeated time with their individual plan and current schoolwork. The recommendation is a useful starting point for most children.
Ask the Center Director how the recommendation fits your child’s plan and the practical rhythm of your family. You can use the next check-in to talk about the skills reviewed and what comes next.
Three points for review
Know what each check is for.
Six-week progress checks
While your child is in a plan, progress checks occur every six weeks. Each includes a detailed written report.
Plan-end assessment
After a plan, a full assessment confirms the plan material is mastered before moving to the next learning plan. Parents receive a detailed written report.
Use updates to ask better questions
Focus on the specific work your child has completed.
A parent update can help you ask what topic was checked, what the next review point is and how your child is responding to the plan. It does not turn one check into a guarantee about grades or an exact date for catching up.

Common questions
Questions about updates and timing.
How often should my child attend?
We recommend 10 visits per month for most children. Your Center Director can discuss how that recommendation fits your child and family.
What happens when a topic is mastered?
We check mastery after each topic and send parents an SMS notice when that check happens. A mastery check is one point of information about that topic, not a promised timetable for overall progress.
How often will I receive a detailed update?
During the plan, progress checks take place every six weeks and include a detailed written report. Parents also receive a detailed written report after the full assessment at the end of a plan.
Does a progress check guarantee a certain result?
No. A check tells you about the work reviewed at that point. It does not guarantee a grade change, a fixed catch-up date or a particular pace of improvement.
