Summer Slide Is a Real Problem
Studies show that students lose almost two months of reading skills if they do not read during the summer months. Students of low-income families are at risk of losing even more.
March Book Fair
With the help of high school NHS volunteers, a Scholastic Book Fair took place in the commons during Parent-Teacher Conferences to raise money to give books away to combat summer slide.
123 CMS Students
took home 6 books each in May 2022 to add to their personal library shelves.
This project was considered a success and will be repeated again this May.
