THE IMPORTANCE OF SUMMER READING

Jobs Today 90% of the jobs today require either a TECHNICAL EDUCATION or a 4-YEAR COLLEGE DEGREE. Only 10% of jobs require unskilled labor.

3 Children who DO NOT READ in the summer can lose two to three months of reading skills. Kids who DO READ tend to gain a month of reading proficiency. Research on Summer Reading

The Importance of Summer Reading Children who read four or more books over the summer do better on reading tests in the fall. 4 *Kim, Jimmy. “Summer Reading and the Ethnic Achievement Gap,” The Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk (2004).

Our Students Are Going to Take the Challenge!
