3. Wallace Foundation Study: Why Summer Learning Matters - To Boston and the Nation
This is a fascinating April 2013 presentation by Wallace Foundation's president, Will Miller, which describes how academic deficits caused by the cumulative effect of summers without learning enrichment are widening the achievement gap between low-income students and their wealthier peers. And what Wallace and five school districts across the nation are doing about it. (Hint: collaboration and trust between community-based agencies, public schools and funders holds the key.)
