Over the summer, students experience “summer slide” when they sit idle over the summer months. Children who do not read over the summer will lose more than two months of reading achievement. Exposure to reading is important in developing vocabulary for fluency and comprehension. CMCSS is working with myOn to provide summer access to over 5,000 free digital books.
