CARES partners with Berwyn Public Library to Fight Summer Learning Loss
The Berwyn Public Library is joining CARES in efforts to keep kids reading and writing EVERY DAY over summer vacation. Research shows that kids can lose up to 30 % of the skills they learned during the school year. YIKES! We can't afford that. As a part of our Baseball Summer Writing Initiative, The Berwyn Public Library donated 50 books about baseball, 300 activity packets and suggested summer reading lists focused on baseball. They've also created some Baseball Reading Kits for parent volunteers to check out. Each contains 3-4 storybooks at appropriate levels for parents to use for a quick post-practice story time. Check them out today!
