The National Summer Learning Association (NSLA), Learning Heroes, and the National PTA are hosting a Summer Learning Twitter Chat on June 5 at 2pm EST.
Join the
#SummerStrideChat to discuss ways to help K-8 parents prepare their child for the next grade and to support summer learning fun all season long.
This is a great opportunity for parents to share why summer learning is important for their children as well as a moment for summer learning programs to share their resources across the nation.
"Bill and Melinda Gates have demonstrated their commitment to education in America by investing billions of dollars of their own money to programs and initiatives that seek to close the massive achievement gap that separates our most vulnerable students from their more affluent peers.
But these endeavors are fated to fall short because they have, for the most part, overlooked the single most important element of any truly ambitious effort to increase achievement in America: summer learning."
NSLA will be presenting in Newark, NJ on Saturday, June 23 for an out-of-school time (OST) conference hosted by Programs for Parents.
Join NSLA at Schools Out: Make it Count for a day of targeted professional development opportunities for OST directors and staff, focused on combating summer learning loss and summer camp culture building.
