Summer treatment program for children transitioning to and from kindergarten (STP-K)

The STP-K is a multimodal intervention including a school readiness class, which consists of a behavior modification program as well as an academic and social-emotional curriculum, along with a parenting program. Throughout the day children participate in activities designed to promote a) behavioral and social-emotional skills consistent with the expectations of kindergarten and first grade, b) academic skills, c) physical activity, good sportsmanship, basic sports skills, and c) a positive attitude towards learning and school. Fifteen children are assigned to a classroom, staffed by one lead teacher, one lead counselor, and four paraprofessional developmental aides, yielding a 2:5 staff to student ratio. A behavior modification program is used across activities to promote positive behaviors. Parents then receive feedback everyday on how their child is doing and also attend a weekly parenting program lasting between 1.5 to 2 hours.
