Super Spectacular Summers at the Library

The new Superintendent for Tuscaloosa City Schools, Dr. Michael J. Daria, is kicking off his new role with the introduction of the Summer Learning Program. This program is centered around the idea of summer slide, which means that students aren't staying active mentally and physically, which puts them behind in reading. Studies show that this slide is linked to them falling behind academically. In order to fill this gap, over 50 programs are being offered to students in Tuscaloosa ranging from elementary to high school. Find that list here.

But what if I can't afford to place my child in a summer program?

While some programs cost per attendance, so many of them are free, including all of the programs held at the Tuscaloosa Public Library and each of the branches! Find a list of all the programs for children, teens, and adults here.


The summer is overflowing with magicians, biologists, musicians, animals and so much more! Come and join us on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at our branches for the Summer Reading Program, and Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 10 a.m. for Storytime!

Oh, and parents, we haven't forgotten about you! Join ME on June 22 and July 20 at 6 p.m. for Yoga!

Can't wait to see you all.

Love your Bubbly 'Brarian, 
Haley
