 Summer Reading is coming back on Bean stack! As you know, the summer learning gap is a real challenge that our students face. The Summer Reading Program (SRP) is a great way to keep kids engaged in reading throughout the summer, with some fun prizes along the way, including a free book when they finish! This year's theme is All Together Now. Think kindness, friendship, teamwork, and a whole lot of fun! In addition to SRP, we have great programs for children of all ages! We are working on a promotional video that you can send out to your students. Look out for it in one of our future newsletters! |
