FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES - SUMMER LITERACY ACADEMY SUMMER LITERACY ACADEMY - THE GOAL OF SUMMER LITERACY ACADEMY IS TO CLOSE STUDENT READING GAPS BY HAVING CONTINUED READING INSTRUCTION THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER. STUDIES SHOW THAT STUDENT READING LEVELS OFTEN DECREASE BY 2 OR 3 LEVELS OVER THE SUMMER IF THEY DO NOT READ DAILY. MOST STUDENTS IN THE ROOSEVELT CLUSTER DO NOT HAVE A PRINT-RICH ENVIRONMENT AT HOME; THEREFORE, THEY DO NOT READ OVER THE SUMMER. BY READING FOR AT LEAST 40 MINUTES A DAY, A STUDENT CAN DRASTICALLY INCREASE THEIR VOCABULARY. WE FEEL THAT IT IS VITAL FOR STUDENTS IN THE ROOSEVELT CLUSTER TO HAVE THESE 5 WEEKS OF INTENSE READING INSTRUCTION SO THEY MAY CONTINUE ACADEMIC GROWTH, AND ARE BETTER PREPARED FOR THE NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. READING LESSONS ARE GUIDED BY TEACHERS, AND STUDENTS ARE TAUGHT STRATEGIES TO USE WHEN THEY ARE READING INDEPENDENTLY. DURING THE SUMMER OF 2011, 200 CHILDREN FROM THE ROOSEVELT CLUSTER ATTENDED THIS PROGRAM.
