Byrneville Parent Workshops To Focus On Summer Learning Loss

May 6, 2012

Byrneville Elementary School will host workshops on Monday focused on “How to Stop Summer Learning Loss” as part of Charter Schools Week.

According to organizers, studies show that by the end of fifth grade, children without summer learning opportunities are nearly three years behind their peers in reading.

Monday’s parent workshops will be held at 1:00 and 6:00 p.m. at Byrneville Elementary.

The first 25 participants in each session will receive free summer book bundles. All participants will learn about disguised learning, hear about virtual summer school, get tips on home summer school, discover learning vacations and more.

Byrneville Elementary School is located at 1600 Byrneville Road. For more information, contact Principal Dee Wolfe-Sullivan at (850) 256-6350.
