[ELM#923] Summer Reading Programs Combat Learning Loss
Description
Summer break is traditionally a period for students to unwind from the structured school environment.

This decay is notably severe in fundamental areas such as mathematics and reading.
In today's podcast, we'll discuss one of the most potent defenses against the summer slide: summer reading programs!
