The mission of the Kumon of Saint Petersburg Center is to help your children achieve their maximum potential in both math and reading. Every child, from 3 year olds through high-school seniors, has different potential and different goals and we work to help both advanced and remedial students. Imagine where that could take you child!!

Because Kumon is an individualized program, children may start at any time.

The FIRST step to enrollment is to attend a Parent Orientation, which lasts about an hour and is designed to inform you about Kumon and the way the program works. It also gives a chance to meet the Instructor and to tour the Center. Please call us at (727) 347-7323 to sign for our next information session.

The SECOND step is to have your child take a complimentary Placement Test. Following the test, Ms. Giti will be able to give you a 24 month projection of how your child would do in the Program. She will also be able to project how long it would take for your child to complete the Program.

The THIRD step is to fill out the Tuition and Fees, Enrollment application, Notice to Parents, and Enrollment Questionnaire forms. Once these forms are filled out and the initial payment made, your child may start classes.

Mr. Toru Kumon,
founder of Kumon

Kumon was started 50 years ago in Japan by Toru Kumon, a teacher and parent who wanted to help his son do better in school. The unique instructional method he created was so successful that his son was able to do calculus by the time he was in the sixth grade.

Our founder’s belief that every child possesses untapped abilities and the potential to excel remains central to our philosophy. In short, there’s nothing a child can’t do.

The Kumon Method was developed to unlock the potential in every child. That’s our mission, and we’re accomplishing it every day at more than 1,500 Kumon Centers in North America alone.

With centers in 44 countries, Kumon has helped more students succeed worldwide than any other after-school program.
