Today, Wednesday, September 6th, is National Read a Book Day. It's your chance to make a difference in our community through our company's If You Give A Child A Book campaign.
Here locally, every dollar we raise is making sure each student at Nash Elementary school goes home with ten brand new books that they get to pick.
Shari-Ann Lossou-Lovasi is a 4th grade teacher at Nash. She's helping fourth graders find their new favorite stories. When Yianna comes to pick her new books this year, she says she wants to find on that's just right for her little cousin. Kids a year younger than Yianna and Ava are at a critical age in their academic journeys. Research from the 'Children's Reading Foundation' says kids who aren't reading at grade level by third grade will struggle year after year. That's because more than 85% of schools' average curriculum is taught by reading.
