These programs are working to strengthen literacy skills among young children, combat summer learning loss and ensure students are reading at grade level by third grade. While each program was unique, they all had similar goals and were successful in meeting the needs of their target population.

With the Foundation’s support, the district conducted a study to measure the effectiveness of four distinct levels within their summer reading program.
