The June issue is a milestone, representing my 12th issue as the publisher. We’ve been together for a remarkable first year. Thank you to our faithful readers, advertisers, and distribution locations, and our wonderful staff! And, a HUGE thank you to Kathy and Rob Fridge who continue to be a source of support in so many ways. I recently found a copy of the FIRST Kids Directory they produced in April 2003. A shout-out to Dickerson Park Zoo (this month’s cover advertiser), the Springfield-Greene County Park Board, and Discovery Center, who advertised in the first issue and are with us 15 years later! ~Melinda, parent/publisher Features Hair Cuts & Salons

Avoid Summer Learning Loss Call today to begin your child’s journey through the proven Sylvan process! Summer learning loss is the loss in academic skills and knowledge over summer vacation. The loss in learning varies across grade level, subject matter, and family income. A common finding across numerous studies is that, on average, students score lower on standardized tests at the end of the summer than they do at the beginning of summer (on the same test). Summer loss for all students is estimated to be equal to about one month (Cooper, 1996), but this varies across subject matter. • Math: 2.6 months of grade-level equivalency loss • Reading: approximately 2 months of reading achievement lost
