Greetings from the North Conway Community Center. While we have plenty of awesome slides on our playground, we are working hard to avoid the “summer slide” of our campers’ literacy skills.

The “summer slide” is a preventable trend among school aged children in which academic skills they have worked so hard to learn over the school year regress during the summer months.
