Dear Parents and Guardians,

The end of school is quickly upon us.  We know that you are making plans for your child's summer vacation activities. Like most parents and guardians, you are aware that the summer months are a welcome opportunity for fun and relaxation.  It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage students to read. 

Over the summer, many students experience the “summer slide” which is a term used to describe what happens when young minds idle over the summer months.  Children who do not read over the summer can lose more than two months of reading achievement. 

Did you know that School 81 provides your child free access to myON, a personalized collection of more than 5,700 digital books to read over the summer on computers, laptops and mobile devices anytime and anyplace? 

To access myON, follow the steps below:

-       Sign into Clever: www.clever.com/in/buffalo

-       Click on “Log in with Active Directory”

-       Enter student username and password

-       Click the “myON” logo

-       Select a book from digital library to start reading

Thank you for supporting your child’s reading endeavors by using myON during the summer months!

Sincerely,

Nicholas Klaich                                  Denise Cobbs                                      Ryan Shepherd
