All Aboard the Reading Express

The All Aboard the Reading Express (Innovative Approaches to Literacy) Grant's mission is to improve literacy and provide in our SCCPSS schools and local community (Curtis V. Cooper Health Care Clinics). The IAL Grant initiative will scaffold support to urban, rural, English Language-Learning, and communities on low-income by providing grade- and language-appropriate books for the home and training materials in multiple languages for the parents during family engagement events and pediatric well-child visits. The grant will also fund the acquisition of language-appropriate books to expand the selection available to students in the school libraries.

This grant enables SCCPSS to work with 11 key sites to focus on improving literacy for ESOL students and students on low income. The list of schools from the grant are:

• Garden City Elementary

• Godley Station K-8 School

• Gould Elementary

• Groves High School

• Hesse K-8 School

• May Howard Elementary

• New Hampstead K-8 School

• Pooler Elementary
