Summer Reading Programs for All Ages

Our engaging summer reading programs help students entering every grade improve their reading skills and build a lifelong love of books.

Why Take a Summer Reading Program?

The "summer slide" commonly occurs when kids don’t read or get enough practice using skills over the summer break. Studies on summer learning loss have shown that, on average, kids lose two months of reading progress over the summer. That’s months of effort and educational gain simply erased in just a few short weeks!

Our time-tested summer programs ensure students are reading and building skills over the summer. By the end of the program, your child will have the skills and confidence to make the next school year a huge success—and feel inspired to keep growing as a reader and student.

What grade will your child be in next fall?

“Samuel’s level of reading and confidence has improved immensely since he began participating in this program. We’ve seen a great improvement in his ability to sound out words, recognize more sight words, his ability to read more fluently and with expression. We really appreciated Ms. Monroe’s teaching style. She really made reading a fun experience for our son. We’re looking forward to continuing to have Samuel participate in the program.” - Angie

“This is Eva’s fourth reading course with Reading Programs. Having come across this course by sheer fluke. This has been the best education tool for Eva. She not only fell in love with the books. She continues to build on her reading skills, fluency and comprehension. All the teachers have been exceptional. Many Thanks to all involved.” - Anna

“Matisse’s comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills have increased. I also notice during his time in the program that during the live sessions he was actively participating. I’m looking forward to having him participate in the next program.” - Lashawn

“This program allowed Israel to really focus on reading comprehension, and through this he was able to break down the story, analyze the events and talk about it like someone who actually read the book and not just the words. Israel just has to continue using the methods he learned in this class for him to continue to improve.” - Carol

“I enjoy this program very much. I consider it a book club for kids. The teacher is very engaging and keeps my son’s interest throughout.” - Shari
