<p class="MsoNormal">Hi! Attached is the list of 141 elementary school sites eligible to participate in the
<a href="http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.aspx#Summer_Learning,_Library,_Lunch_%28SL3%29">
Summer Learning, Summer Library, Summer Lunch (SL3)</a> program this summer. OregonASK estimates that about 50 of these schools will actually participate in SL3 this summer. Schools on this list have about 50% or more students eligible for the free or reduced
lunch program, and about 40% or more students reading below grade level at 3<sup>rd</sup> Grade.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Schools participating in SL3 are required to contact their local public library to ask if you’re able to partner with them to provide the summer reading program to youth at their SL3 site.
<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Partnering with SL3 sites can be as simple as providing them with your summer reading logs and program information. This will allow SL3 site staff help kids with their reading and filling out your summer reading
log, but kids would have to come to your library to get incentives. However, I highly encourage you to do at least one program or activity at the SL3 site so kids get to meet you and experience a library program. This may be just what some kids need to make
them feel comfortable visiting your library—they may just need to know who will be there and what to expect during programs to take that first step into your library. I also encourage you to think about distributing incentives at SL3 sites because many of
these kids can’t walk or ride the bus to your library and their parents can’t take them for a variety of reasons.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>If you can’t partner with an SL3 site, then the State Library will provide them reading logs, book lists, and some activity ideas from the summer reading manual.
<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>

</span></span></span><![endif]><b>Be pro-active.</b> Contact the schools on this list that are in your service now and start a conversation with them about partnering on summer reading for their students. Even if the school doesn’t become an SL3 site, they
have a significant number of underserved students who can benefit most from the summer reading program.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>

extras. The total student body of the school is included on this spreadsheet. This is an allowable Ready to Read cost.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
