Did you know that the month of May can be the least productive month for student learning?

  • May counts for 90-120 instructional hours (depending on the last day of school - 6 hours x 3 or 4 weeks).

  • May can account for up to 40 hours of reading instruction (2 hours per day x 3 or 4 weeks).

  • Students need to be at school - A lack of instruction during the month of May will deepen the summer learning loss.

  • When you consider end of year data, celebrate the successes, and continue to encourage your children to do their best.

  • May matters to student learning.
