Our community's youngest students are impacted every year by the "summer slide," the phenomenon where students experience a drastic loss in learning over the summer. Although this slide seems inevitable, it is very easily preventable. With just a moderate amount of reading over the summer, students can not only maintain their current learning level, but may even excel ahead of their peers.

​​

Summer Scholars aims to help students build, maintain, and expand their foundational reading skills, specifically during the summer when learning momentum tends to decline. Our tuition-free sessions are with volunteer high school/college tutors who want to make a difference by helping the youngest scholars in our community.
