Reading Partners reflects on a year of growth in the new annual report
In the 2012-13 school year, Reading Partners expanded to serve students in nine regions across five states and the District of Columbia—recruiting over 8,500 volunteers to work one-on-one with a student in their local community. Last year, we served 10 times as many students as we did just five years ago, doubling the number of students we served in the past year alone.
These gains reflect the same steadfast commitment to excellence our growing organization was built upon. Last school year, 88% of our students accelerated their rate of learning. We are very proud to share these successes and more in our latest annual report.
