ST Math Summer Bridge objectives are a set of objectives for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. They are designed for students to play during the summer to have a 'best of’ experience of ST Math. Our goal is to provide a review of the core concepts and preview the upcoming topics in order to reinforce the core understanding and minimize learning loss over the summer.
