We Believe:
- Reading and writing are the foundation of
academic success.
- Students have a right to learn through
reading.
- All students have the capability and need
to be literate citizens.
- It is the responsibility of all staff to
ensure literacy for all students.

Project LEAD if funded through a
partnership with the
Niswonger Foundation.
The Partnership Program provides schools with the resources and
expertise they need to become successful. By helping schools develop and maintain
strong academic programs, the Foundation seeks to enhance the
educational opportunities of all children.
Under the direction of Linda Irwin, each partnership project is
tailored to the particular school and community in which it is
located. |
