CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - When the school year ends, there is always a concern about the “summer slide.”

That’s when students forget what they have learned during the school year. If you can keep them reading, though, that can help prevent the slide.

QC Life’s Jorge Andres visited the Allegra Westbrooks Regional Library on Beatties Ford Road to learn about the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Library’s “Summer Break” reading initiative.
