Literacy

Research shows that demonstrating early literacy skills such as with kindergarten readiness and third-grade reading proficiency are strong predictors of later academic success, high school graduation, and future earning potential. Through our programs, we strive to increase literacy rates across Clay County.

A world of learning.

Reading unveils entire new worlds to kids. It’s why we partner with New Worlds Reading Initiative, Florida’s free program that supports students in strengthening literacy skills, building reading confidence, and encouraging a lifelong love of reading. New Worlds Reading delivers monthly free books and activities to eligible VPK students and K-5th grade students who are not yet reading on grade level in a Florida public or charter school.
