BELL is an excellent program. My daughter has learned a lot this year. This definitely keeps her ahead of the game. Maybe one day she will be a tutor for BELL."

Strategic Partners

	Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Houghton Mifflin Harcourt is BELL's primary curricula partner. It provides high-quality, skills-based literacy and math curricula, as well as access to Edusoft, a powerful web-based assessment tool that enables BELL to deliver data-driven instruction and track scholar performance.
	The National Summer Learning Association The National Summer Learning Association and BELL work together to improve and expand summer learning opportunities for children. BELL regularly contributes to the Association's national conferences and advisory board meetings, shares performance data, and collaborates in several learning communities. The Association is also a lead partner for the Smarter Summers initiative, funded by Walmart, that is helping BELL serve more middle school scholars in BELL Summer.
	New York Life Foundation In 2007, the New York Life Foundation first partnered with BELL to help increase the size of the BELL Summer program in New York City. Now, the foundation is supporting the national expansion of BELL's out-of-school-time programs for scholars in grades K-8.
