This book is an authoritative examination of summer learning loss, featuring original contributions by scholars and practitioners at the forefront of the movement to understand—and stem—the “summer slide.” The contributors provide an up-to-date account of what research has to say about summer learning loss, the conditions in low-income children’s homes and communities that impede learning over the summer months, and best practices in summer programming with lessons on how to strengthen program evaluations. The authors also show how information on program costs can be combined with student outcome data to inform future planning and establish program cost-effectiveness. This book will help policymakers, school administrators, and teachers in their efforts to close academic achievement gaps and improve outcomes for all students. Book Features: Empirical research on summer learning loss and efforts to counteract it. Original contributions by leading authorities. Practical guidance on best practices for implementing and evaluating strong summer programs. Recommendations for using program evaluations more effectively to inform policy.

During the summer months, students who make progress during the school year often lose valuable information. This regression is known as ?the summer slide? (Borman, Benson & Overmann, 2005). The biggest discrepancy is between students of low SES and students of high SES. Students from low income families may not have the resources, access to literature, and same opportunities during the summer months. While their financially more well off peers may be making academic gains over the summer months, the lowest income students have shown to regress the most during this time off from school. Educators and administration are asking what can be done, but unfortunately the answer is usually hindered by the cost. Some school systems offer summer learning programs to their students, but many cannot afford to do this. For school systems that cannot afford instructional summer programs at school, one thought is to make a summer packet of educational activities to be sent home for the summer months. Parents can be informed and educated of the importance of continued learning over the summer months. The hope is that even with a minimal amount of continued learning over the summer months, the amount of regression will decline.
