The summer slide occurs when students do not engage in educational activities throughout the summer.
In order to combat this learning loss, libraries throughout Northeast Ohio have created programs to keep students academically engaged during summer break.
Many libraries are using the app Beanstack for this program, which is where students and parents can register for the program and track their reading. Many Northeast Ohio libraries also offer a variety of other programs and events for students to spark creativity and curiosity in ways other than reading. For example, the Akron-Summit County Public Library is offering Family Summer Time on June 27, which will include various outdoor activities.
