Discover All the Rewards of Reading
Reading during the school year doesn't have to be an afterthought! Our students are always having meaningful experiences with great books.
...And Learn How to Make it Last
Developing the habit of reading great books during our programs gives kids many opportunities to keep learning and growing as readers and students. There's no better way to ensure lasting success, all the way through school and into adulthood.
The impact of reading regularly - especially while school's in session - is staggering! In fact, by the time that they're in high school, students with a 20-minute per day habit can read over 1 million words in a single year. The more your child reads, the more skills he or she will master.
