It’s day 4 of #summerlearningweek and @TCSBoardofEd is spending the day advocating for summer learning programs on Capitol Hill. Our students did an AMAZING job telling why summer learning programs are so important and sharing stories of how they have been positively impacted!

Investments in education from @GovernorKayIvey & the Legislature, along with policies passed by the #ALBOE, have made a significant impact in 3rd Grade Reading scores and we are committed to continuing the upward trajectory #alabamaachieves #weteachalabama
