Our SSEF Summer Book Club enrolled students from Dunwoody Springs, High Point and Ison Springs Elementary schools. SSEF employed teachers to lead the clubs for six weeks. Students met virtually to discuss the book of the week and participate in related activities.
In Summer of 2023, 85% of students maintained or increased reading levels and 82% increased reading levels. This exceeded the program's goals. Club members were invited to two pizza party celebrations, where SSEF awarded graphic novels and other books as prizes.
