Turn summer slide into summer success

Summer learning loss is real. Research shows that an average of six weeks in the fall are spent relearning material that was forgotten during the summer. You can eliminate summer learning loss by participating in Summer Reading Together. Plus, participating kids have the chance to win great prizes, including a $50 gift card for four overall winners. Read books from required summer reading lists or find fun books from our lists.
