Summer Reading @ FFL: Posters, Banners, T-shirts and more...A Retrospective
In the summer of 1976, Vermont’s Department of Libraries began a yearly initiative to encourage children to read through their summer break. Fletcher Free Library joined the program shortly thereafter. While students look forward to a school-free vacation, maintaining what they have learned during the year is an important challenge. The benefits to children in participating in a summer learning program has a documented cumulative effect on academic performance.
