REMINDER: Last call for students and tutors!!! The portal closes on May 2, 2025. Thanks so much, and we look forward to having you at Premier Martial Arts Center on East-West Connector (Hobby Lobby Plaza) for our "Avoid the Summer Slide" literacy boot camp.

Is your student or a student you know struggling with reading? This 8-week literacy boot camp is a way to help. The proven curriculum will help prevent children from losing the progress they made during the school year by enrolling in this summer program. The fee is nominal, at $15 per month per child for the online learning platform. If you are unable to pay this amount, we have community sponsors available to assist you.

Don't delay! Use the QR code on the flier to register now.

Summer vacation is upon us— but learning doesn’t stop just because school’s out! It’s not uncommon for school-age kids to experience a summer setback once they’re away from the classroom. That’s why I’m partnering up with some other community members to co-sponsor the South Cobb Elementary Literacy Group’s reading camp, “Avoid the Summer Slide!” The camp runs every Saturday from June 7 to July 26 and is designed to keep young minds active and engaged.

The Kiwanis Club of Greater South Cob and partners are tackling low literacy rates in Georgia through a reading program from June through July 2025 to avoid the summer slide. The Georgia Literacy Council reports that only 31 percent of fourth-graders and 32 percent of eighth-graders were reading at grade level during a 2023 academic achievement study.

The nominal cost to parents or guardians is a $15 monthly fee for the learning platform. Other fees, such as tutoring and part of subscriptions, are covered by the South Cobb Literacy Group, a team of citizens concerned with the sustainability of education.

The curriculum includes online and in-person literacy programming, including assessments with individual assistance for students from tutors. Learning is held on Saturdays, June 7 to July 26, 2025. Parents, students and tutors must commit to eight weeks with no more than two absences to qualify for entry. Please review the accompanying fliers for times.

If you are an educator, we could use your support. A pay of $15 per hour, or a credit toward a practicum, will be awarded to tutors for their time.

Register your student or become a tutor using the 'MORE INFORMATION' link below.

Sustainability in the resources we use means sustainability for all of us--cleaner air, cost savings and so much more. Partners like Compost Cowboys helps toward resiliency for food waste. What are some ways you believe we can improve our environment for our health and overall wellness?

Composting is one of the simplest ways to cut down on waste and pollution! By diverting food scraps and yard waste from landfills, composting reduces methane emissions and helps keep our air and water cleaner. It's a small action that makes a big difference in building sustainable communities. Be a part of the solution-start composting today!
