Summer is a time for growth, fun and exploration
As we slide into summer, we know many people have concerns about whether they’re ready for next school year. We’re determined to do everything we can to help students keep learning. 

As a mission-focused non-profit, it is Khan Academy’s duty to support parents and students to the best of our ability. We’ve created a summer schedule with learning activities that are meant to be templates that can be used as is, or modified to better suit the needs of your children.

Khan Academy has self-paced, interactive content--exercises, videos and articles--for students in every grade and in most major subject areas. It is all free and non-commercial and is made possible by philanthropic support from people like you. 

See our Keep Everyone Learning resource page for more information on getting started with Khan Academy.
