The Río Hondo Math Academy summer program will offer local students a chance to complete math coursework and earn credits during summer 2026. The program, hosted at Arroyo High School in El Monte, is open to students across the El Monte Union High School District.
According to program materials, the Río Hondo Math Academy summer program focuses on helping students accelerate math learning in a structured and supportive environment. Classes will run Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., with optional tutoring available in the afternoon.
What The Math Academy Offers Students
The Río Hondo Math Academy summer program allows students to complete a full year of math in one summer session. Courses include Integrated Math IAB, Integrated Math IIAB, Integrated Math IIIAB, and Pre-Calculus AB, depending on enrollment.
Program organizers state that students can earn up to 10 high school credits while preparing for advanced coursework such as AP Calculus or AP Statistics. The curriculum is designed to build foundational skills and confidence in mathematics.
The academy is free to attend, removing financial barriers for families seeking academic support or acceleration opportunities. District officials note that all EMUHSD students are eligible to participate at any school site offering the program.
Why Summer Learning Opportunities Matter
Summer academic programs play a critical role in preventing learning loss and supporting student progress. For many students, especially those working to recover credits or advance more quickly, structured summer instruction can make a measurable difference.
Programs like the Río Hondo Math Academy summer program also provide smaller class settings and targeted instruction. This approach allows teachers to focus on individual student needs and reinforce key concepts.
Parents benefit from these opportunities as well. Enrolling students in summer programs can help families stay engaged in academic planning while offering a productive, supervised environment during school breaks.
