MAY IS NATIONAL ELECTRICAL
SAFETY MONTH
LES is joining the Electrical Safety Foundation International to recognize
National Electrical Safety Month, a yearly campaign to help reduce electrically
related fatalities, injuries and property loss through education.
Throughout May, LES will share electrical safety messages and tips, featuring
special ESFI content on our social media pages.
Electrical safety awareness and education among consumers, families,
employees and communities helps prevent electrical fires, injuries and
fatalities. For ESFI’s complete collection of National Electrical Safety Month
resources and information on using them in your community, visit ESFI.org.

Summer learning loss, also known as the summer slide,
is what educators refer to when students begin their new
school year at lower achievement levels than when they
left for summer break the previous year.
Aside from reinforcing the importance of summer
reading in the home, parents can encourage their
children to continue learning by utilizing community
resources such as city libraries and outreach efforts by
organizations like LES.
For more ideas on keeping your student stimulated with
STEM-oriented activities, check out the Kids Outlet on
