Beat the Summer Learning Slide!
The average student loses roughly 2.6 months’ worth of knowledge during the typical three-month summer vacation, according to an article on the National Association for Year-Round Education website. As a result, teachers must spend as many as six weeks getting students ready to learn the new grade-level materials.
The Doddridge County Family Support Center has purchased summer activity books to help students brush up on their skills and stay ahead of the Summer Learning Slide. So, whether you have a child that is entering Preschool this fall, or one needing to study up for college entrance exams, we have a book for you! Please call us, email us, or message us on our Facebook page, and we will make sure you get the books you need. They are available at no cost to you. Please call us at 304-873-3500 or 304-666-1100, email us at [email protected], or message us on the Doddridge County Family Support Center Facebook page. If you must leave a message, please include your name, address, telephone number, and the grade your child will be entering this fall. Fifteen minutes a day can make a big difference! Have a wonderful summer!
