Giving in Action – Reading Partners
|
(Thanks to the Molly Prince for the post)
Reading Partners believes that reading unlocks a student’s limitless potential and lifelong love of learning. We mobilize communities to provide students with the proven, individualized reading support they need to read at grade level by fourth grade. Studies show that students who meet this mark have a greater opportunity to succeed in school and beyond, and yet only 29% of fourth-grade students in Denver are reading proficiently. At the same time, students from systematically-disadvantaged communities often face more significant challenges than their peers from more affluent communities. That’s why we partner with under-resourced schools and engage volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with students who are learning to read. Our volunteers provide hour-long tutoring sessions to students, following a structured, evidence-based curriculum. Reading Partners Colorado serves nearly 600 students and their families at ten schools in the Denver metro area, with the help of 700+ tutors! Learn more and sign up to volunteer at readingpartners.org/colorado. Both virtual and in-person volunteer opportunities are available.
