Summer Learning Loss


Statistics show the important of keeping children reading and academically active during the summer months.


But...we can help students and parents have access to reading materials over the summer to help prevent the summer slide!

  • Make sure your students have usernames and passwords for RAZ kids (K-5) and Kid Biz (3-5) accounts. Students may know their usernames and passwords now, but those memories fade fast after the last day of school. Be sure to send home passwords for these accounts in their last Friday folders. Make parents aware that they child will have access to these resources over the summer and should take advantage of them to prevent summer reading loss. 
  • Be sure to bring previously selected students down to the auditorium on Friday, June 5th between 11-2 to collect Books on Break books. If you can't remember who you have previously selected click here!
  • If you have other students you feel might need books to have at home for summer reading, but are not on the Books on Break list, let Emily or Janet know. With a little information about your reader, we can put together a summer book bag for him or her! (The sooner we know the better!)
If you have questions, please let Emily or Janet know!
