School district offers books, games, and materials for summer learning
BUSting with Learning will continue throughout the district through Aug. 17 and staff member have loaded up the buses to bring free literacy resources to kindergarden through third-grade students in the community.
Each year hundreds of young children disconnect in the summer, making it much harder in the fall to succeed academically, school officials said, prompting educators to start the BUSting program.
“Literacy is the catalyst for all learning. This important initiative helps reinforce literacy in the next generation and bridge early literacy gaps,” said Wayne-Westland Community Schools Superintendent John Dignan.
Throughout the summer, buses will visit elementary schools in the district. Students and families can pick up books, school supplies and materials and enjoy games and activities provided by the bus staff.
Buses will also be cruising through the community, distributing books to children in area neighborhoods. To learn where BUSting with Learning is stopping next, visit https://bit.ly/39r2KV2.
