Visit our Facebook Page and share Your Summer Learning Story! What inspires you about summer? Everyone has a summer story to share. Whether it’s a memory from your own childhood, progress in your community around summer learning, or an amazing moment from your summer program, we want to know!
Also, check out NSLA's special social media campaign - Our Time to Shine! The goal is to shine a bright light on (past and present) ways our partners, community leaders, educators, and families are spreading the joy of summer learning. This is an excellent time to shine a spotlight on our community’s summer learning commitment, your stories of inspiration, and the importance of investing in high-quality summer experiences for every kid in our county.
