The
National Summer Learning Association (NSLA) will celebrate
National Summer Learning Day on Thursday, July 14, to raise awareness of the importance of summer learning and recognize the work of the many organizations that
#keepkidslearning. Libraries are encouraged to connect to a vast network of education leaders by taking
NSLA's pledge to keep kids learning this summer and adding their summer learning programs and events to
NSLA's interactive map. Add your events by June 1 when NSLA launches the map more broadly!
