  1. FACS Summer Learning Program

    Students from both better-off and disadvantaged backgrounds make similar achievement gains during the school year. However, during the summer the disadvantaged youth from homes without books fell significantly behind in reading.

    Below are a list of fun sites that will help your student beat the summer slide. Your FACS student is already familiar with these sites and has been taught how to use them. Most are mobile friendly sites that you can access from a tablet or smart phone.

    For the students with the most minutes in MobyMax, we will be giving away prizes including an MP3 player, gift certificates to Scholastic, dress down coupons, homework coupons and more... You must get your MobyMax time in before July 31st.
