Help Turn a Page to Improve Schenectady Child Literacy

Learning to read is essential to learn, but too many children are falling behind in Schenectady, in New York State, and across the United States. By fourth grade, students should transition from learning to read, to reading to learn. However, recent data show that Schenectady and New York State students are not ready. Further compounding the problem, many Schenectady students are economically disadvantaged.
