summer learning program

The Carson City School District is pleased to announce the launch of several Summer Learning Resources for parents and families. The goal of continuing summer learning is to help students stay fresh academically, build upon what they've already learned and prepare for the next school year and grade-level.

As part of its Summer Learning Program the Carson City Library is offering a three-day summer Code Camp for youth looking to create projects in NCLab provided by the Nevada State Museum.

It’s going to be a breezy weekend, so you may want to rethink spending the day at the lake. Luckily, plenty of options are available just about anywhere you are. Carson City has a car show and Brewfest hitting the downtown corridor, and to the south, Minden and Gardnerville are having their party of the year: Carson Valley Days. It’s World Doll Day at the Nevada State Museum with special displays, activities, and a special performance by the local Young Chautauquans.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Monday has returned. Don’t worry, you’ll find plenty of things all week long to keep you occupied until the weekend returns. The Carson City Library continues its Summer Learning Program with a fun presentation on the butterflies and other bugs you can find in Nevada. Its family day at Carson Lanes, which means bowling is just one dollar per person per game all day long. Warm up those vocal chords for karaoke at the Fox Brewpub: Manic Monday by the Bangles or Monday, Monday by the Mama and the Papas might make for a good song choice.

Join the Carson City Library this summer with our Summer Learning Challenge this Saturday, June 10, 2017 through August 4, 2017. Our Summer Learning Challenge encourages and rewards readers of all ages while also providing fun educational programs and special events.

Linda Bellegray attended Carson City Library’s Book Tasting on Friday evening, and determined the sampling to be delicious.

“I’m interested in several of these books,” she said. “There’s a plethora of ideas about how to improve cities in practical ways right here in these books. Our city fathers should be here.”

Carson City Library’s NCLab Coding Camps have been named a top 10 summer learning program by the Young Adult Library Services Association.

“Everyone at the Carson City Library is so grateful for this national recognition,” said Carson City Library Director Sena Loyd. “We strive to make the library an active place of learning for the community."
