Summer Reading and Math
All students deserve a break in the summer, but did you know that the "summer slide" is real? The average student loses one to three months of learning every summer! To help keep our Pine Hill students ready for the next grade, we encourage students and families to continue to read and practice math skills each summer. Please use the links below to find books to share with your student, as well as math activities you can do together!
