Get Illinois Reading Campaign deadline extended to April 8
The deadline to participate in
The Get Illinois Reading Campaign
has been extended
to
Friday, April 8. More information on this statewide initiative to get students excited about
summer reading is available by watching a recording of the
informational webinar or on
the
Get Illinois Reading Website . Research shows that as little as
10 minutes of additional reading per day can dramatically
impact a student's overall reading performance (article included) and help to
mitigate summer loss .myON's unlimited anytime access to 5000+ books combined with a fun
summer reading program can provide a strong foundation for summer and back-to-school
success.
Participating districts/schools will be offered a summer reading scholarship to offset the
programing costs of the personalized reading platform for all district students and faculty.
Program details, costs and requirements are outlined in the
"Get Illinois Reading Kit."With myON's digital solution, we can help to mitigate the concerns and negative impact
associated with summer slide as we partner to build a strong community of readers across
Illinois.
