Beat the Summer Slide with summer learning

Summer slide is the phenomenon where young people lose academic skills and wellness over the summer. Fortunately, there are many opportunities for students to learn throughout the summer at home, at school and in the community. For more information and fun summer learning ideas, see our Summer Learning web page.
Minnesota's commitment to educational equity

Minnesota has worked together with stakeholders to develop a shared definition of educational equity, along with 10 commitments to equity. The definition of equity begins with: "Educational equity is the condition of justice, fairness and inclusion in our systems of education so that all students have access to the opportunities to learn and develop to their fullest potentials." Read the full definition and our 10 commitments to equity.
