As federal funding for summer learning as a pandemic recovery strategy phases out, state governments face decisions about their future role in supporting students' access to quality summer learning opportunities. This brief is based on the full report, "How States Are Expanding Quality Summer Learning Opportunities," and summarizes findings from nine geographically and politically diverse states that have adopted different approaches to state-level summer learning investments. The findings highlight the following key strategies: (1) garnering support for investment by articulating clear goals, developing coalitions to generate political will, and identifying sustainable funding sources for summer learning; (2) implementing competitive grant programs that minimize administrative burden for applicants and grantees, allow for implementational flexibility, and are administered in partnership with nongovernmental entities; (3) directing investments toward increasing access for student groups that stand to benefit most from summer learning investments; (4) promoting high-quality implementation either through grant requirements, voluntary quality guidance, and/or technical assistance; and (5) collecting and using data to evaluate quality and improve implementation.
