Summer is coming, school is out, and it’s the perfect time to dive into some great books! The Evansville Police Department has partnered with the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation, Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library, and Barnes & Noble for its second Summer Reading Series.
Reading plays a key role in children’s cognitive, emotional, and language development — all of which contribute to academic success. In an increasingly digital world, face-to-face interactions like shared reading experiences help build relationships and strengthen social connections.
This summer, students attending EVSC Summer Schools, as well as any interested children, are invited to join the reading sessions held at various Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library branches and at Barnes & Noble. We’re also grateful for the support and generous donation of books from Read Evansville, which helps make this program even more impactful.
We’re excited to read with our community and continue this partnership with local schools, libraries, and Barnes & Noble — all with the shared goal of supporting student success. Attached is a PDF with locations and times. The first reading session kicks off Monday, June 2nd at 5:00 p.m. at Barnes & Noble.
